Geocache Description:



"This 2nd Time in Paris..."
Meet, Greet, Eat, and Cache
Saturday, January 12th, 2008




WHEN: Saturday, January 12th, 2008 9:00 AM to ???

WHERE: First National Bank of Paris Community Center 25 East Main Street, Paris AR 72855

The listed coordinates will get you to the parking lot of the First National Bank of Paris Community Center.

This event will take place even in the event of rain, sleet, snow, ice, sunshine, or etc.

There will be a meal, contests, temporary caches, surprises and hopefully a bunch of cache talk and caching.

There is no cost to attend the event of course but prize donations are welcomed. We would also appreciate anyone who would volunteer to help at the registration table. Please e-mail me if you would like to donate a prize or volunteer.

The meal will be “pot luck” @ NOON. Please bring a dish and a 2-liter of your favorite soda. We will have ice, coffee and tea. We will also furnish some hot dogs for the kids. Please call me (479.518.0812), e-mail me (paris1time@yahoo.com), or send me a message with what you plan on bringing and I will list it on the Arkansas Geocachers Association forum.


Cache Ca$h Dash & Cache Ca$h Auction


There will be five temporary caches placed the day of the event that represent some of the types of caches hidden in geocaching. Those placed on the day of the event will be temporary caches to represent a traditional, multi-stage, letterbox, puzzle/mystery, and virtual cache.

Those who choose to participate in the Cache Ca$h Dash will receive a temporary cache sheet the day of the event that will have the details on how to find the caches. Once all of the caches have been found the participant will receive a sealed envelope containing Cache Ca$h (specially marked play money).

Participants will then be able to use their Cache Ca$h to bid on items up for auction in the Cache Ca$h Auction. The twist: you will not be able to see the item up for bid because it will be placed inside a container and the auction will end without notice. Participants will also be able to do what ever they want to do with their Cache Ca$h by using it, giving it away, or pooling with others to bid on items.


Cache Container Swap


If you are a true cache addict you are probably guilty of holding onto all of the containers you come across and collecting them. Maybe you have needed a container but didn’t have one that fit your cache hide. Please bring all your extra cache containers to the event and maybe you will have a container that someone else needs and maybe someone else may have a container you need. Cache containers could be traded or given away.


2nd Annual Photo Contest


We love to take photos while out caching and we know many of do also. We thought this would be a great time (especially if the weather does not cooperate) to show those photos off. The contest rules are simple: (1) The submitting cacher must have taken the photo and (2) the photo must have been taken while geocaching. Bring your favorite photo(s) to be displayed (It’s up to you how you present the photo (frame, matted, etc.)). Those attending will be allowed to vote for their favorite. If you plan on bringing a photo to submit for the contest please place a label on the back of the photo/frame with your name, Cache name, and waypoint for the photo.


Travel Bugs and Geocoins


Bring your travel bugs and geocoins to show off. If you plan on bringing geocoins and travelbugs to the event and would e-mail me the details for them we will prepare a list to help people to spend more time looking and sharing than having to write tracking numbers down.
MORE UPDATES COMING SOON...
Please post a “Will Attend” if you plan on coming and tell us how many in your party will be coming so we can plan accordingly. If you plan on attending send me a message or e-mail me the names and screen names of those coming and we will have some name tags already made. Please add this listing to your "Watchlist" and watch for updates as the event approaches.
