Geocache Description:

Social Event for ALL
Event at: Sept. 8, 2018 Floyd Roberts Pavilion Land of Memories Park 300 Amos Owen Lane Mankato, MN 56001

This is the Otak Group 2018 salute to all the Geocachers that visit the area throughout the year. We want to meet YOU!
Come to Otak for an opportunity to meet a few of your fellow geocachers for a day of new geoadventures, camaraderie, exercise, and some good old-fashioned fun. Talk of old caches, puzzles and HINTS.
This is a "Rain or Shine Event'. Caches will be placed throughout Mankato, North Mankato area. No particular focus. Wooded Parks, Urban and Trail caches. Should you care to join in all information needed will be available. Your individual needs to bring. All variations of Tott. INSECT REPELLENT is often forgotten.
We will have the Coffee, Water, Juice and Breakfast snacks should you join us at 8:00 AM.
Costumes Wear your favorite Cereal/Breakfast costume. Prize for best costume of the event.
