WWFM XII: More Jersey Shore Bubbles! Event Cache

This cache has been archived.

JerseyEric: Final numbers for the WWFM XII: 389 events in 40 countries, attended by over 13,000 participants!

The number of WWFM events in 2015 was about HALF, or 50%, less than the record-breaking # in 2014. Likewise, the number of participants was roughly HALF of last year's record-breaking #. Was this due to one or more of the following?
1) No GC.com souvenir for the 2015 WWFM.
2) The new requirement that GC.com events last 30 minutes.
3) Less promotion for the WWFM on Podcacher? -- Sonny & Sandy seemed to be more focused this year on promoting Geowoodstock than the WWFM.
4) Has interest in geocaching or, specifically, geocaching flash mobs peaked?

Anyhow . . . Hope you enjoyed our boardwalk event. If we host a WWFM event in 2016, we promise a new location and new theme!
