Geocache Description:


Caching With The Tide - III

Welcome to Caching With the Tide III !   We will be hosting this event on the Black Warrior River in Moundville.  Not only will this event be on the banks of the Black Warrior River, the location this year is the home of Mound State Park.  This park is full of fun for the whole family and plays a major role in the history of this area and the great State of Alabama!  Plans for this year's event have not been finalized however we promise that this year's event will be just as exciting as the previous two!

Visit:  Mound State Park

NOTE:  Tell the gate attendant that you are with the Geocaching Group and you will be able to enter the park at no charge!

We will be able to beat the summers heat in Mound State Park's Conference Center.  We have the building reserved so make your plans to join us for another exciting year!

We will provide hamburgers, hotdogs and the fixins';  all you need to bring is your favorite non-alcoholic drink, dessert and your favorite portable chair!   Please log the cache as "Will Attend" and inform us of your plans along with the number in your party.  Now grab your calendar and mark August 16th as a must attend event!  There will be fun for the entire family!

FTF Frenzy is back!   Back by popular demand!  This was such a popular activity during the first year's Caching With The Tide event, we decided to bring it back!  We will be hiding additional caches and will give the coordinates out at the end of the event.  This will give many of you a chance to pick up a FTF in the area.  The caches will be un-listed and will not be submitted to Groundspeak until after the event.  The caches will have a gc number and be active shortly after the event.

Many more details to come, so please place this event on your WatchList and be ready for more updates to follow.  Bring your chairs and arrive early for some mid-day fellowship and GEOCACHING stories.

We will have door prizes, travel bugs to trade, coins to swap and other trade items present at the event.  If you plan on caching in the area,  feel free to ask any of the locals to tag alone.  We will be glad to assist you in any way.

NOTE: Travel Bugs - We will be having a Travel Bug Table and we plan on running it a little differently.  Please follow these rules if you plan on bring a travel bug to this event.  First we will have four baskets setup for the travel bugs. The baskets will be labeled as North, South, East & West.  If you have a travel bug that wants to head north, please place it in the north basket and likewise for the other directions as well.  Second, you will need to print out the travel bug detail sheet and place it in a Ziploc  bag (this will help others know the goal for your travel bug).


We will be honoring three of Tuscaloosa's finest Cachers during this event!  We will have a 1K Ammo Can for them at this event.
