Recently Spotted: In Huckleberry & Cache Festival

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. “Please do not dip me into multiple caches. I will not gain extra points for the those caches you dip me into and it affects some of the numbers used to calculate the standings.”

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:
