Cache Placement for the Event
We are asking all local cachers to place at least two caches and
the following restrictions will apply. Cache must be placed within
the Cape Breton Regional Municipality. No Micro caches are allowed.
Winter friendly caches are favoured, but not required. Use the
Prefix --Sept29-- before your cache
name, and add a note to reviewer, Please do
not release till September 29, 2007 for the Cape Breton Celtic
Caching Event. After your cache has been approved ( still
not listed yet ), please email to the MineRP the GC.Com Waypoint
Number, Name and Coordinates, so a list can be compiled for the
Event morning. NOTE : Cache Agent will change the --Sept29-- to
**Sept29** once it has been checked and OKed, this allows her to
keep track and will be put out on the Event Evening.
On Friday, September 28, you should go into edit and redate all
your cache placements dates to September 28. This will allow them
to show up as new caches on GC.Com.

Local Geocachers are
asked to bring a small appropriate swag item for the childrens
cache, if possible. Thank You
For the Poker Run, FIVE of the Event Caches will contain a
packet of cards. Take only ONE card per cache, and try to make the
highest poker hand. Hopefully you will find all five caches during
the day, but it is not necessary because you could win with fewer
if your 3 or 4 card hand is best.

Sunday Event
It has been proposed to have a " Hike in the Highlands " to round out the
weekend. One suggested travel is the set of four caches:
Cape Clear GCH2KC
Second Fork Brook Falls GCXK2G
Martha Brook Falls GC128BX
and
Sugarloaf Mountain GC14ZHV
This will be a tough go, so you can do as many or as few as you
decide. Very few will have done these caches, so here is your
chance for glory, and the honour of Geocaching in general. I can
take some bodies in my truck for this one as required, and likly
will stop somewhere in Baddeck for supper, if anyone
survives........
MineRP, Stang, Hershey and Whiskey have siged on so far for this
hike. This can also work out for mainlanders, can get on their way
home. We will be turning onto the Cabot Trail, off the TCH at
Nyanza and onto the highlands wood roads. Hope to leave fairly
early Sunday morning. Interested person see the Miner on Saterday.
Can make arrangements for a location to meet, best to travel in a
group over these roads in case of vehicle difficulties.
Or if people want one closer to the Sydney area, I have a few nice
Coastal Hiking sets around the Baleine/Main a
Dieu/Fourche/Louisbourg areas. There are also lots of caches along
the Louisbourg highway and in Louisbourg. The choise is yours..
Please make your intentions known.
