Geocache Description:

I AM ABLE TO EXTEND THIS RACE TO INCLUDE MARCH 9 & 10.

This is going to be a timed georace held in Creve Coeur park. It will take place on these dates March 2, 3, 4 and 9, 2007. Each team needs to pick the day they want to participate. After I know what day you would like to race and then I will provide you with your start time. The terrain will be very challenging at some points along the way with steep hills to climb and bushwhack.

WITHIN 48 HOURS OF PREFERRED DATE I NEED ONE ADULT FROM EACH TEAM TO LOG Will Attend ON THIS PAGE>>>PLEASE GIVE YOUR TEAM NAME AND CHOSEN DATE IN THE LOG!!!!!

This is a second attempt at this race which was called Groundhog Race which I decided to cancel due to unsafe conditions caused by snow and ice. Since I had to change the name I decided to throw in a little St. Patrick's Day in the title because I was born on the snake chasers day in 1976. Feel free to bring me a present, but it won't help your time :-P

The main guts of the race will be the same but now the teams will have a stagger start on each day. The race will start by meeting me at the above listed coordinates and will end at a final containing a clock set to my watch and a disposable camera. Each team must take a picture of themselves holding the clock.

This foot race will include some steep hills, bushwhacking, grinding of cognitive gears, and TIME! Each cache on a team member’s path leads to another on the cache path. The race will probably last less than 2 hours. Teams can be from 1 to infinity in the number of team members. There can be strength in numbers, as well as disadvantages.

Once again: WITHIN 48 HOURS OF PREFERRED DATE I NEED ONE ADULT FROM EACH TEAM TO LOG Will Attend ON THIS PAGE>>>PLEASE GIVE YOUR TEAM NAME AND CHOSEN DATE IN THE LOG!!!!!
