Geocache Description:

It's here again! Once again, the Geeks of Central Texas are proud to present GEEKFEST, an event where you can get all those geeky questions answered ... about computer programs to help you cache paperless and stay organized ... AND about your GPSr and how it operates! Please note the date in the HIDDEN space above. It's the 1st Saturday in March.


If you haven't heard about Geekfest, here's what it's about - geocachers helping other geocachers learn (even remotely) geeky stuff!
The event will be held, in part, outdoors at the Kreig Ballfields, beginning near the Fire Training Tower. This segment will include a geocaching "demo" and "how to" WHICH IS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. We'll need plenty of geocachers to help with this, acting as "tour guides" for the participants. Coords are N30 14.712 W97 42.877. This segment begins at 8 a.m. and will include actual cache hunting. TELL YOUR FRIENDS AND CO-WORKERS!
The really Geeky stuff will be presented INDOORS at the RUIZ Branch Library, in their wonderful Meeting Room, complete with wireless internet access. The library is at 1600 Grove Blvd, just off East Riverside Dr. The room is reserved for their open hours that day, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Expect this to be an ALL DAY event if you want to attend both the outdoor and indoor segments.
We're going to get pizza for lunch, with everyone chipping in, so bring a little cash. WE WILL TAKE ORDERS FIRST THING IN THE MEETING ROOM, SO MAKE SURE YOU FIND THE PIZZA POSTERS AND INDICATE WHAT YOU WANT. In addition, please sign up to bring one of the following: 1)ice; 2)cold drinks; 3)veggies, fruit, dessert, or snacks you can eat with your fingers (cookies, brownies,crackers & cheese, etc). Cups, plates and napkins are covered.
Please tell us what you would like to learn, so we can make sure we have it in the curriculum. No question is insignificant! No question is too tough (although we might need to use phone-a-friend to answer it!), either. Of course, if you ask a question, we WILL expect you to show up to get the answer!
If anyone has a teenager(s) (I didn't think it was PC to limit it to daughters) who would like to babysit on site for us during the day, we would like to offer that service. We'll ask the parents to help compensate her/them, of course! I hope we can pay them $5 per hour for 6 hours. They can use the library facilities, as well as play outdoors in the yard, to keep your kids entertained. PLEASE INDICATE IF YOU WANT A BABYSITTER! I won't be looking too hard for one unless someone indicates a firm need, because last time we were supposed to have several kids and ended up with ONE.
