The location is the general area where we will meet. Good time to
renew old friendships and meet new cachers.
Noon is the time for the Meet, Greet and Eat. Bring your
favorite dish, I'm sure we will all enjoy it very much. There are
charcoal grills available, restrooms, swimming beach for the kids,
picnic tables, a lot of shade and excellent boat ramps but the
water is low making it difficult to lauch.
The boats will be launching at 10 am from the ramp on route
27, below Leesburg. Non-powered boats can leave at 9 am. See
the reference waypoint for the location.
During lunch if you have a cache hunting tale, suggestions,
cautions or think of a nearby cache that is of interest, this is
the time to tell everyone about it. Door prize drawing, (donations
gladly accepted).
Bring those Travel Bugs and Geocoins that have been languishing
in your stash for too long. If you are going to do any of the lake
caches it might not be a good idea to leave them in one of them
because they probably would not get moved for a very long time.
Trade them at the event or put them in some of the numerous caches
in the area.
If you have a boat, this is the time to grab those caches. If
you have room for others let me know and I will post a list of the
number of people you can take with you. Lake Harris is about 7
miles E/W by 5 miles N/S. Little Lake Harris is 1.5 miles E/W by
3miles N/S.There will probably be a few more caches on the lake by
event time.
Those choosing to look for some of the caches on the lake and
have an extra seat or two will have appreciative cachers willing to
ride along.
If you have a non-power boat come to the new lauch area, by
9am to get your list of cache coordinates, regardless of which area
you will be launching from.
If you go on the lake, make sure you have a cell phone to call
for help if needed. I don't want to be on the water after dark
searching for lost boaters.
You won't see this scenery here but you will still enjoy the
view. And you will be able to get to all the cache areas
easily.
