Paul B. Johnson does not have their own website, but you can call
the number above to book your camping spot. We will be gathering at
Pavilion 27 at 9:00 a.m. We will have a table for your TB's and
Geocoins.
We will be serving lunch for $5.00 a plate. There is no need for
you to bring any food. PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN DRINKS. We will not
provide drinks. We are not trying to make money off of this, just
to make it easier on everyone. This way you don't have to worry
about cooking something and bringing it. We will provide all food,
plates and utensils, even dessert. The menu is bar-b-cue chicken,
baked beans, potato salad, and Frank(King Kong) will be cooking
cobbler in his dutch oven.
Please let us know as soon as you know if you can come. We want
to make sure there is enough food for everyone.
We will have 3 games, and lots of prizes. More info on the games
will be posted later. We will, of course, have lots of new caches
for you to find.
Please see the thread in the MSGA forums titled "June 23 Event"
and join in the discussion. Post here as well with any questions,
etc.
FAST CACHE GAME: Start picking your teammates now! No
more than 5 people per team, but you can have less if you prefer.
You will be given a sheet with some caches listed on it that have
not been published yet. You will not be told anything about these
caches, all you will have is the name of the cache and the
coordinates. You will have to find as many as you can in the time
limit that will be set and be back to the pavilion. The team with
the most finds wins trophies for each team member. There will be
codes that you will have to bring back from each cache. Also, all
teams are supposed to stay together. No splitting up the team and
hunting seperately, and no sharing hints with other teams. There
will be a tie breaker if necessary. This is perfect for those of
you who frequently make numbers runs!
6/23/07 - Congratulations to our winning
team, team 9 (DavidMac, Agent24, prntr1, Leftygator, and
CknMiss24)! Three of the 19 teams that participated found 12 of the
14 caches, but team 9 got back first. Each member of the team
received a trophy, a Bamboozle caching stick, and a bag of 5
ready-to-go micro caches.
POKER RUN: While you are doing the fast cache game, try
to hit the caches that are labeled as poker run caches. You will
know which ones these are. There will be 5 caches that have
individual envelopes with one card each. Each team member (or
whoever wants to play) may take only 1 card from each cache. Each
cache contains cards from different decks. You must only take one
from each cache container. Once you have your 5 cards, you have a
hand and are ready to play. Do not open your cards until we say so.
When we are ready to play poker, we will tell you to open your
cards. There will be prizes for winners.
6/23/07 - Congratulations to Daniel Majors
(now forever to be known as "Lucky"), who won with two queens and
two jokers - a four-of-a-kind. Daniel received a trophy and a solid
silver Geocache America geocoin donated by Coins and
Pins.
SCAVENGER HUNT: While you are out cache hunting for the
poker run and fast cache game, and any time you see something on
the scavenger hunt list, pick it up! You may want to bring a bag
for this game. We will have a list of scavenger hunt items for you
to collect at the event. There will be prizes for winners. You may
want to split the poker run and the scavenger hunt between your
teammates and let the younger ones do the scavenger hunt while the
adults do the poker run, as the children may enjoy this one better.
Either way, it is open to everyone!
6/23/07 - Congratulations go out to team 10
(Eagle700, JmScout90, JmSoccer90, and Daniel aka "Lucky"). The team
won by a wide margin, finding everything on the list except for a
cicada shell and a 1970 dollar bill. The four-member team won
trophies, five geocoins (one donated coin from each of our company
sponsors), and 5 bags with 5 ready-to-go micro caches in
each.
6/23/07 - Congratulations to our other
winners:
Daniel Majors (Lucky) was also the kids' raffle grand prize winner.
He won the Garmin GPSMap 76CS GPS unit donated by ADS1.
Young Jennifer (JmSoccer90) won the grand prize in the combined
raffle - a full set of 10 XLE Edition Civil War geocoins donated by
Chris (prntr1).
Please show your appreciation for the generosity of our sponsors
who donated prize and give-away items for this event. Visit their
websites or send them an email thanking them for contributing to
our event. These companies and individuals are supporting the
geocaching community and deserve our recognition and
thanks.
