Geocache Description:

Caching from the Pier is the ONLY caching event in the WORLD to take place on a pier (as far as we know).It is being held on the Victoria Pier, Colwyn Bay, North Wales on Saturday 7th and Sunday 8th June 2008.

We have had permission to hold a meet in the newly refurbished Oddities bar with access to walk on part of the very old Victoria Pier (visit link)
We will be meeting on Saturday from 12.0 - 2.0pm and then again on Sunday from 12.0 - 2.0pm.
There is a cafeteria and a bar on the pier.
Plenty of FREE parking.
Raffle for the Restoration Fund for the Pier.
Dogs are allowed onto the beach in designated areas.

We will make a spread sheet for the TBs and Geocions that are logged into the event, so please sign them in and sign any you are taking thanks.
