Over the last 16 years the Kansas City Picnic has evolved from a small gathering of geocachers to a multi day event that culminated in a full day filled with many activities. This year we are looking back and remembering some favorite things from previous picnics. Our 2017 picnic reflects what the picnic was like “Back In The Day”. Come and spend the day with us as we evolve back to the past.
We’re grilling…burgers, brats and hot dogs. We’ll also be providing all the buns, condiments and chips. If anyone wants to contribute, we’d love to have fresh garden tomatoes for the meal and watermelon for dessert (please have them all sliced and cut up if possible). That’s it… nothing fancy and at no charge to you!
If you want to bring extra sides, just bring enough for your own group. We’re not setting up tables for any extra side items. Also, if you have dietary restrictions and wish to bring your own items to grill we can accommodate that.

In addition to posting your "Will Attend", please register for the picnic here so we know how many folks we'll have dining with us. You can also order your "Back In The Day" *FOUND IT* picnic t-shirt at the same link.
Attendance to this event is free for everyone, so in order to offset picnic costs, donations are welcomed. Any cache related items (quilts, coins, trackables, baskets, books, GPSr's, etc.) will be raffled off. Contact a committee member if you'd like to donate anything in advance. As always, we thank you for your generosity.
We're also looking for pictures from picnics in the past. If you have any pictures stashed away could you please send them to mogeo.picnic@gmail.com? Thank you!
A special thanks to the city of Grain Valley, MO for being geocaching friendly.
