If
you want to bring chips or whatever to share, you may, but it is
not required.
Please RSVP here with the number in your
party and number of hotdogs you will consume. Non-checked plus ones
are welcome.
There
are modern facilities here, including super-clean bathrooms with
flush toilets, charcoal grills, and a fireplace!These DNR
facilities are similar to the ones at last year's venue. There is
drinking water, electricity, playground equipment, and fishing. No
Hunting.
We
would like to see all of our brothers from MAGC, CINCO, NEI-GEO,
INDIGO, MIGO etc. that can make it.
We
are planning on several new permanent caches in the immediate area
that you can log, to be published on the morning of the
event.
We
will be having a "Closest to the Penny" contest at 1:00 sharp. This
contest will be a like last year's. It will be a timed event.
Everyone will have 10 minutes from the GO! command,to enter the
coordinates, to get to the site, and place their right foot on
ground zero. At the end of the ten minutes, whoever's foot is
closest to the mark wins. Butterfly Girls are offering two geocoins
as this year's prize:
"Drum
roll please.......Geocaching Police Squad Magellan Armed (2007) and
the very rare MWGB Chick coin from the Butterfly Girlz.
hahaha"
--
(Garmin owners will be given an 8"
handicap).
In
addition, this year we will have a petting zoo, including Patrick
the Terrier and Loki the Wolf.
There are many geocaches within a one mile
radius of the event, including many on the Scout Trail across the
lake at Kil-So-Quah.
And no , this will probably not qualify as
a MEGA event. Small and Intimate. But maybe.
HERE ARE SOME PICS FROM Previous years:
SOME OF YOU REQUESTED THE LYRICS TO THIS
YEAR'S OFFICIAL SONG, SO YOU COULD MEMORIZE THEM FOR THE
SING-ALONG. HERE THEY ARE:
I pulled into the regular pump
I was feelin' quite at ease
I rolled down my window and told the man
"Fifty cents worth, please"
Then out jumped my partner
With his trusty pellet gun
He said, "Boy, this is a holdup
Keep pumpin' and don't run."
Chorus:
And now I wish I was somewhere other than
here
Down in some honky tonk, sippin on a beer
Yes I wish I was somewhere other than here
Cause that great fillin' station holdup
Cost me two good years.
We got fifteen dollars and a can of
STP
A big ole jar of cashew nuts and a Japanese TV
Feelin' we had pulled the biggest heist of our career
We're wanted men-we'll strike again!
But first let's have a beer.
Chorus
We were sittin' in the Krystal
About as drunk as we could be
In walked the deputy sheriff
He was holding our TV
He roughed us, then he cuffed us
And he took us off to jail
No picture on a poster, no reward, and no
bail.
Chorus
The Official BEER of BHDB 2008 is
PBR
This is a Rain or Shine dog and kids friendly event.
