Lower Alabama Meet
and Greet
Anyone interested in Geocaching and
meeting your fellow cachers or have recieved a GPS for Christmas
and living in the coastal regions of Alabama, Mississippi, or
Northwest Florida is invited to the Gulf Coast Meet and Greet which
will be held starting at 10:00AM January 12, 2008 at the Barnes and
Noble Book Store in Mobile, Alabama. The hope is that this Greet
and Meet will become a monthly or bi-monthly
event.
Put faces to the names in the
logbooks, swap travel bugs and geocoins, tell tall tales, etc.
There will be a logbook to sign.
As an added treat for you
new to Geocaching or if you from out of town there are 3 caches
within a mile of the Greet and Meet and over 90 within a 10 mile
radius of the Greet and Meet.
Feel free to bring your friends or significant but disinterested
other to the event. Even if they could care less about geocaching
Barnes and Noble and the Mall at large will have plenty for them to
do while we talk cache.
