Geocache Description:

WWFM - 15 minutes World Wide Flash Event Cache starting exactly 1:00 PM - Be on time and bring your own pen!

A Flash Mob is a large group of people who assemble suddenly in a public place, do something unusual for a brief period of time, and then quickly disperse.

DATE : Saturday, November 10, 2007

TIME:1:00 to 1:15 PM (only 15 minutes!)

WHERE: Grand Parade,downtown Halifax This Flash Mob Gathering of Geocachers will be only 15 minutes long. You MUST be present and sign the log sheet DURING this time to claim this event. After 15 minutes…we're gone!

This event will last exactly 15 minutes, and will be one small part of the WWFM (world-wide flash mob event). This event (and all others around the globe in their respective time zone) will begin precisely at 1:00 PM on Saturday, November 10th. At exactly 1:00 PM (as determined by my signal) a container with the event logbook will be placed near the coordinates. Participants will sign in. Names will be drawn from the list of attendees for the FTF, 2TF and 3TF prizes. At a designated time, we will have a “banquet” and will take a group photo. At exactly 1:15 PM, the logbook will be closed. The event area will be evacuated without a trace. Only those participants whose names appear in the logbook may log THIS event.
For ALL people who are present and log the event around the world, your name will be submitted for a draw by the organizers of the WWFM... who knows, you just might win a prize for coming out!!!

ITINERARY: 12:45 - 12:59 PM - Participants: Wait patiently in your vehicles or stroll around the area. Don't make it look like you're waiting...

12:59 PM - I will reach ground zero with the container, and 1 minute later start the event on my signal. This is the signal for the Flash Mob Event to begin. Everyone now makes their way to GZ.

1:00 PM - Sign the logbook. Mingle. Trade travel bugs and coins. Share stories.Brag. Take pictures. Make arrangements to meet elsewhere, or to find the various caches in the nearby area.

1:08 PM - The event “banquet” will be served! (Could be crackers, could be partridge fingers, who knows!)

1:11 PM - Prize draws

1:13 PM - Assemble for a group photo (with GPS in hand). This will be on the stairs with the Town Clock in the background.

1:14 PM - One minute warning is called "It is now 1:14!!!" Prepare to leave, but don't make it look like you are.

1:15 PM EXACTLY - Wait for it ... then LEAVE the area (right at 1:15 PM)! Meet elsewhere if desired. If everything goes right we will have lots of people coming out of nowhere and gathering for 15 minutes, holding a geocaching event and then disappearing…This could be lots of fun and maybe even raise a few muggle eyebrows!
