Geocache Description:


This flash mob event is part of a much larger effort by geocachers around the world. At 1pm, EST, other World Wide Flash Mob (WWFM) events in across the country and around the world will occur. Come and be a part of this epic event.

If you haven't participated in a WWFM event before, you're in for a treat! We'll meet at the posted coordinates and participate in a little kooky behavior, then promptly disassemble.

12:30 -12:59 pm - Participants: Find parking, (suggested parking and location of event wrap-up: N41 03.062 W75 18.811) and then find your way to a location where you're within sight of the posted coordinates; wait patiently and/or stroll around the area. STAY AWAY from ground zero until the signal is given. As much as you can, act like a muggle, pretend not to know each other or give any indication that something is about to happen. At 12:59pm converge on ground zero. The Flash Mob Event has begun.

1pm - a signal will sound... then "FREEZE!" For five minutes, don't move, talk, etc., just stay frozen in place. (Be sure to plan ahead what position you'll assume for the full five minutes. Bring your family and friends to participate with us. Be creative! We'll be shooting video of this portion of the event and the reactions of the muggles will undoubtedly be priceless!)

1:05PM - A signal sounds, and everyone immediately resumes normal life, gets a log sheet to fill out, and finds their way via various paths back to the suggested parking coordinates.

1:10PM - EVENT WRAPUP: Back at the suggested parking coordinates, drop your log ticket in the box. Assemble for a group photo. Trade stories, discover trackables. Make plans to join in group caching if you wish. Note: you must come and drop your filled-out log ticket in the box in order to log your attendance.

1:15 PM The event is over.

Additional Hints (Decrypt)

[Parking close to GZ may be difficult. Consider parking here, just off route 611: N41 03.062 W75 18.811. We'll reconvene here afterwards with anyone who wants to have some post-event caching activity.]
