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. However, I only gain points for the final cache you place me in, so please do not try to help me out by dipping me into multiple caches. Read on to find out how you can help me win the race. This bug is a special one...I picked it up as geoswag from the Helliwell cache during a trip to visit my Dad in Comox BC. More importantly, it combines my two hobbies (sewing and geocaching) and happens to be Canadian like me!

About this item:

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. Read on to learn more about how YOU can help.

As a contestant in the Great TB Race, I am eager to help my owner win. Prizes will be awarded for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place, but the only way I'll get a prize is if I earn enough points before January 5th, 2010. Here is how you can help me get points:

11/7/2009 Pathfinders4 placed Canada Moose in the Great TB Race of 2009 in Can You Hear Me Now #2 North Carolina 4.9mi SE   [visit log]    11/7/2009 Pathfinders4 retrieved Canada Moose in the Great TB Race of 2009 from The First Day of School Cache North Carolina   [visit log] There have been some "technical" difficulties with this cache and this bug has sat long enough. This new location is adjacent to a major north/south highway and should offer the opportunity to collect some miles. Will post a picture if I can work the "help" menu. A thousand pardons for the delay. TFTB. PF4    11/4/2009 VWDave retrieved Canada Moose in the Great TB Race of 2009 from Can You Hear Me Now #2 North Carolina   [visit log] I traded ROLLIN 1 TB for this one. Will get you some points soon, pic a couple of caches then back to Tn to try to get it to a different area.    9/12/2009 The Cache Kid placed Canada Moose in the Great TB Race of 2009 in The First Day of School Cache North Carolina 198.4mi W   [visit log]    9/12/2009 The Cache Kid grabbed Canada Moose in the Great TB Race of 2009 from Windy Sunsetspecial North Carolina   [visit log] Grabbed this TB from Pathfinders4. Needed a FTF prize for a new hide and thought a moose would do just the trick. Reminds me of a favorite book, "Morris the Moose and the First Day of School" or something like that!! Good luck Morris. TKC    8/22/2009 Pathfinders4 retrieved Canada Moose in the Great TB Race of 2009 from Windy Sunsetspecial North Carolina   [visit log] Always willing to help a moose in distress. Saw this bug "languishing" by the sea-shore for what, minutes? No matter. Bugs need to travel and so he joined us on our road trip home to Fayetteville. You'll have to do the math for county lines crossed. I may post a picture, if I can get a round to it. Will try and get him back in the game this weekend. Great bug. Good luck. PF4    8/22/2009 cmartin1970 placed Canada Moose in the Great TB Race of 2009 in Windy Sunsetspecial North Carolina 41.8mi SE   [visit log]    8/13/2009 cmartin1970 posted a note for Canada Moose in the Great TB Race of 2009 North Carolina   [visit log] Just wanted to let you know that the Canadian Moose is still alive and kicking. Our plans changed at the last minute and I wasn't able to get to the Outer Banks. There is a chance that my BF will be heading to Oklahoma next week on business. If so that would be great for the Moose. If not, we will be heading back to the Outer Banks the following weekend. Sorry about the delay.    7/31/2009 cmartin1970 retrieved Canada Moose in the Great TB Race of 2009 from Battle of South Mills North Carolina   [visit log] Part of Team Twine and I found it in The Battle of South Mills. We will drop it off in Kill Devil Hills, NC next weekend.    7/11/2009 tommyandamanda21 discovered Canada Moose in the Great TB Race of 2009 North Carolina   [visit log] Saw it while Caching with Marvida and Green Weasel today.
