Current Goal

You found me!! Now you can help me out. I am a contestant in the Great TB Race of 2009. In this race, I can earn points for various tasks that I complete. The more points I have, the closer I am to winning. The simplest way is to help move me to another cache, but I have more tasks that are worth more points. My mission is to win. Read on to find out how you can help.

So that I have the best chance of winning the race, please try to get me back out into the world quickly. The more I travel and meet people, the better my chances.

    Retrieve It from a Cache 12/30/2009 Free-cachers retrieved it from Schooled Out Texas   Visit Log

    Retrieved from Schooled Out. We will take to Chicago tomorrow (New Year's Eve) and drop immediately, so it can get some additioanl miles before the end of the year.

    Good luck with the race.

    Retrieve It from a Cache 12/23/2009 Free-cachers retrieved it from Calypso 1 Texas   Visit Log

    Found it today in Veterans park in Arlington. My brother was with us and he found this cache first and this was his first find, so you may get points for this. I will drop later today to see if you can get a couple of moves. Will fly back to Chicago on New Year's Eve, so if it hasn't moved further after I drop it, I will pick it up again and drop it there (would get additional 800 miles).
