Happy New Year! Yep, 2008. You've resolved to exercise more, spend
more time with family, get more focused at work, more organized at
home. You've promised your mom you'd call and write. You've sworn
to be a better parent this year. Maybe you've opted to set aside
this geocaching craze for awhile to achieve all those goals. Maybe
you've resolved to find every cache on your map and start 2009 with
a completely blank slate. 
Well, friends are here to help you, encourage you and, well,
distract you from all those "SHOULDS" and "WOULDS" and get you back
on the playing field!
On Friday, Jan. 25 from 5 p.m. to 8
p.m., put aside all those obligations to revisit this
activity/hobby/sport/obsession we call fun, entertaining,
maddening, frustrating, enjoyable, maybe even exciting. Bring
friends and family, first-timers and old-timers, cash for pizza and
beverages (they have salad, too, but if you're going to fall off
the diet wagon in January, why not do it whole hog?) and, of
course, your GPSr. Let's talk about your favorite relatively local
caches (within three counties would be nice), the ones that have
stumped you and the ones that have left you giggling on the caching
trail as passersby wondered just what the crazy person was laughing
about.
Is there a local find you'd like to do, but need some
camaraderie to complete? Hiking buddy? Someone taller to reach that
unreachable hide? Bring along ideas for those, too, and we'll try
to schedule our next group outing.
This is a fee-free event of the
Poison Oak Cachers . Members and non-members welcome, new
members encouraged, curious onlookers applauded. Come one, come
all!
Cache Owner's Note:HOLY COW! This is turning
into a MAJOR event! GREAT! Look at all those TBs and Coins n'
stuff! We'll be giving away caches (to hide, of course) and other
goodies. Please consider donating items for inclusion in the caches
containers provided or donating other prize items for the raffle.
THANKS!
