Geocache Description:


Taking a Walk on the Wild Side, Too
(or as close as we can get and still be in the City Limits!)

Where: Centennial Park (same as last year)
When: November 17, 2007
Time: 2-7pm (give or take a little bit!)
Parking: N 32 25.017 W 099 42.720

Hello again from The Amigos! Well, it's that time again! The heat is letting off, hopefully the rains will have slowed down, and it's time to get our lazy butts off the couches and do some caching!

So, are we crazy or what? We decided to do this again! We're going to have another get-together (or maybe this should become an annual thing). Same place, hopefully lots of new faces! We had a great time last year, and looking forward to an even better time this year. We had good food, good friends, and good caching. What more could we have asked for?

Well, we're asking for more this year!! lol More food, more friends, and more caches!! If you know somebody who has been interested in caching, but has never taken that step, this would be a great time to bring them out, and actually show them we're not REALLY crazy, just a little bit crazy!

We chose to use the same location because of the shade, having electricity, water, and bathrooms available, and because we won't have muggles all over us!! We may decide to make this a CITO event as well, which will mean TWO icons (for you ICON HO's)! We may want to use the area again sometime, so it would be a good reason to do this.

I'm not sure how many caches will be hidden yet, as we are just in the beginning stages of planning. More information will be posted as we get it together. There will be prizes again, as well. I am working on getting donations from local businesses for prizes, and possibly a few coins and/or swag donated from the coin companies, like last year! There is a nearby shaded park for our smaller geobuddies to play at, with supervision, if they would rather play than cache (HOW COULD THEY!!!).

This get-together, at this time, is going to be a brown-bag event, but if I can get enough donations like last year, this may change to a pot-luck dinner. Please email me with suggestions (or a preference for pot-luck or brown-bag). There is refrigeration available, as well as electricity, if needed. You will need to bring your own drinks (we kind of had an issue with this last year). NO ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES ALLOWED IN THE AREA!

Oh yea, there WILL be another Coin Raffle, so bring your pocket change!! This year, I think you might just want to bring more than your pocket change, as this time, there may be upwards of FIVE coins included in the raffle, maybe more, not sure yet. These are ALL nice coins to have in your collection.

We will also have a donation jar set up again for a donation for Abilene State School for letting us use their location (this would be a good place for your pocket change!

I do need a head-count, so I can start getting the ball rolling. Please email me by November 1st with this, and sooner with suggestions and/or ideas for the event, to RWFriend1@yahoo.com.

We look forward to seeing all our old friends again, and hopefully meeting new friends this year. We will swap stories, swap coins(?), and just have a good time! Be prepare to do a little hiking.

If you do plan on caching during the event, we HIGHLY recommend jeans and bug spray. Also, folks, there are wild animals out here, and there have been 2 cases of rabid foxes out here, found this spring, so you will need to really be aware of your surroundings!!

More info to follow as it becomes available.
