Sunday February 28th. At 9:45 be there for orientation and to size up the competition. 10 a.m. the game clock will start ticking.1:30 p.m. the game will conclude and the eating shall begin and the winner will be announced. If some of you are reluctant to try this event because you think it may be to physical it isn't. Give it a try.
We challenge your team to our cacher brain games. Centered around beautiful Eel lake.
Ten teams will compete in a mental and physical caching contest. Racing each other and the clock to find hidden tokens.
Those not joining a team can hang out at game HQ.
We will provide a hot pulled chicken on a hoagie roll sandwich and loaded baked potato soup at the end of the race. Make it a potluck and we will be feasting. Last years potluck went well. Bring your own drinks
How this is going to work. The first ten groups to contact me will be the teams. If there are no empty teams see if you can join a team.
If you are a team leader be receptive to adding others to your team if possible. A team will be as many as you can put in your car. Preferably four or more to a team. If you have a Suburban or mini van you can have a fairly large team.
All team members must stay together as a group. No splitting up. Those that have physical limitations may wait patiently at the team vehicle while the other team members slog through the mud, hike the sand hill, swim across the lake, raid the hornets nest or whatever else my twisted mind can find to punish contestants with.
More brain power may make going through the puzzles quicker. Youth on the team may also be a good thing.
