Wherigo(2007)

 

Wherigo was introduced in 2007 as a "toolset" for creating GPS enabled adventures.   There are several Wherigo Caches in the Monterey area, but for those folks that would like to test out the mechanics of playing a Cartridge, we will have a short Cartridge built for the Event that you can try out.

If you have some specific questions about putting together a Wherigo Cache type, or the programming logistics of putting a Cartridge together, please bring your ideas and/or Cartridge to the Event.

 

We will be holding a raffle for some prizes.  Feel free to bring something to include in the raffle if you're so inclined.

We will also be passing the ammo can to help defray some of the cost of the Event location.

If you're an amateur or professional astronomer, feel free to bring your own telescope to set up.  There's lots of room!
