Geocache Description:

Located in Haworth Park, Shelter #2; just on the Bellevue side of the Missouri. There's even a convenient bridge to Iowa and I-29; it's toll, though. Bring a dollar or two to get across and back. There's a lot of caches in the vicinity - as well as tent and RV camping sites.

***UPDATE***UPDATE***UPDATE***
There have been several new caches placed throughout Bellevue (8) plus one more becasue, well, the spot was begging for a cache and I had an extra nano.
The prize committee has announced the prizes for this greight event!!!
There will be two (2) $10.00 gift certificates and four (4) brand spankin' new travel bugs!!
A Geocaching Cookout with geo-friends to celebrate the crazy 8's and the start of the summer Olympics...is geocaching an Olympic event yet?

It's the 8-8-8 EVENT ! ! ! !

Every 1 Year, 1 Month, 1 Day, 1 Hour, 1 Minute, and 1 Second the numbers align and make people that have a numbers fixation smile - The next time this happens will be
soon!

Strangely enough, this date falls on a Friday night and gives us good reason to make a Geocaching event out of it!

Ready for the fun? Come on down to Heyworth Park in Bellevue (and there are a couple of caches right in the park area) and visit a bit.

The grilling begins at 7 pm, and there will be no less then four covered, indoor grills for cooking on. This is potluck, of course - LadyCache will be providing buns and charcoal, Sioneva will be taking care of hot dogs and maybe hamburgers. The rest is up to you all! (Plain hot dogs are so /boring/.) If you'd like, please let us know what you are planning on bringing...

We have an evening of fun and games so make sure you are there to join in the 08/08/08 @ 08:08 pm event.

To start the evening, we will play a game of geogolf. As you arrive in the park, find a spot in Heyworth Park and mark it on your GPS as a waypoint. Then after 0808080808 has occured, we will make an announcement of the "winning" coordinates. Whoever is closest to the prechosen secret coordinates, wins a prize.

There will be other games too so you don't want to miss out on all we have planned for you. Decks of cards will be provided - conventional, and maybe we can sneak in an Uno or Skipbo deck as well, too. There's no shortage of tables for sitting down and playing a couple hands of your favorite card games - whatever they may be. We'll try to print up the rules to several of the more popular ones, for those wanting to learn a new game! The shelter's reserved until 10 PM, or until we run out of daylight, whichever comes first. :)
The area is wheelchair accessible but there may be rough traveling on some of the way to the pavallion.  There is a playground nearby.  Dogs are also welcomed in the park but don't forget the necessary cleanup equipment.

Oh, if you have a battery powered alarm clock, bring that as well. ;) The more the merrier! Rumor has it there will be a few special decks of cards... Hope to see you there! SionCache & Ladyeva (or something like that!)
