About This Item

Can You Find Me? :o)

How the "Hat" came to be... This is the metallic green hat that I first used at one of my events the !tnevE ytraP aeT 10-10-10 for the GeoDome Contest. It was a hit and when the first Block Party came around in 2011 GC2FYVM and I wore my Event Hat. I had added more trackables to it by then. I was shy and after an hour of so much attention I had my husband take it back to the van. The next year, the Hat had grown again! I had a hard time getting around the 2012 Block Party GC38J9N because everyone wanted to Discover all the trackables. I realized I needed to come out of my shell so to speak. I started taking names to email the list of my trackables to everyone. Well, that didn’t work so well because I couldn’t read all of the writing when I got home.

I was unable to come up to go to Washington for the 2013 Block Party GC3X684 with my husband. My husband went alone and for some reason he refused to wear ‘The Hat’.  I dusted off my Event Hat for Geocoinfest 2013 GC30FNQ in Las Vegas, Nevada and I passed out a paper with info for people to Email me instead. It was a huge hit. Now, it had time to grow again, I added a Belt for the 2014 Block Party GC4CPG0 since my Hat was too full. I had found a system that worked for sharing the codes so those I met could 'Discover' me. By the time the 2015 Block Party GC5G4X5 came around. I had added a necklace to the get-up since the belt was now full. It will keep growing and I will just keep adding to my ensemble. I just love sharing my trackables and adding a little surprise to the MEGA Events I Attend.

 

I have had an amazing time with my Event Hat & Belt over the years. I love seeing peoples faces when I walk by. I hope you enjoyed it and it was good to have met you. I hope we cross paths again soon.  Below you can check out some videos or articals my Event Hat & I have been on.

Saw you at the CacheBa$h event in West Bend, WI. WOWSERS!! I recognized you immediately as the same "trackable hat lady" that I had met at the Project APE event (many years ago) when they reintroduced the ape cache after it had been missing, archived, located, and unarchived. I don't remember the other "accessories" (being part of your outfit) but goodness .... MEEE OHHHH MYYYYY .... how your collection has grown!! How do you ever get through security at the airport and all of the discovery logs after a major event!? It was great seeing you again McKenzie~Bins!! Thanks for sharing all of these with us!
