How It Works
This is the Ontario BINGO Challenge - 25 Oldest Multis! This is a Challenge multi-cache which begins at the posted coordinates. However, in order to log this cache as found, you will first need to meet the Challenge as per Groundspeak rules. The BINGO grid is filled with the 25 oldest existing Multi caches in Ontario. You must have completed at least five of the listed activities in a row, column or diagonal creating a “BINGO”. If you can claim a BINGO line of five completed squares, you may find and log this cache. There are 12 possible BINGO combinations (5 across, 5 down, 2 diagonal).
You must get a BINGO before logging this cache as found. We hope that cachers will use the honor system and only seek out this cache if they can claim a BINGO.With Geocaching celebrating its' 10 year anniversary on May 2, 2010, this BINGO Challenge will hopefully give cachers the incentive to go find some of the long standing caches that laid the foundation to geocaching in Ontario. Caches are listed in order on the BINGO card from oldest (B1) to most recent (O5). If a cache on the BINGO card becomes archived, then it will be replaced by the next oldest Multi cache and then you will have the choice of using the archived cache (if you found it) or it's replacement as part of your BINGO.

Logging Your Find
When you log this cache as a find, indicate how may BINGO combinations (levels) you qualified for. Example: If you have only one row or column then that would count as level 1. If you have 8 combinations then your level would be 8. If you filled the entire grid then you reached level 12.
Please write in your found it log which BINGO line(s) you are claiming along with any memorable experiences that you had while finding any of the 25 caches included as part of this BINGO Challenge.

Verification
Please provide links or proof of your accomplished BINGOs for verification purposes as per the Groundspeak guidelines for Challenge caches. This can be done directly on your found it log or by emailing us.

There is a Project-GC challenge checker, but note it might not incorporate replacement caches; we don't own or maintain this checker, unfortunately.

PGC Checker

Moving Up In Levels
If at some point in the future you are able to get more BINGOs, post a note indicating such on the cache page and your level will be increased.
