Geocache Description:

This event will be held near the caboose CN78175 in Marina Park, Thunder Bay, Ontario

WWFM V (World Wide Flash Mob) 2009 – Revenge of the Caboose

The WWFMs are coordinated geocaching events. A flash mob is a large group of people who assemble suddenly in a public place, do something unusual for a brief period of time, then quickly disperse. These events take place simultaneously at locations across the globe.

The event will last exactly 15 minutes, not one second longer. The event will begin EXACTLY at: 1:00 PM on Saturday, May 2, 2009 and will end at EXACTLY 1:15 PM. You MUST be present and sign a log sheet DURING this time to claim the event.

The above coordinates will take you to the designated WWFM V gathering place. This location is very familiar to the geocachers in Thunder Bay who have looked for CN 78175 Cache (GC1A2HT).

The event will have a railway theme. Further details to be posted.

Prior to the event:

• Drive to the parking area near the coordinates. Either stay in your car or get out of your car and pretend you are a muggle. Act like you don't know anyone else.

• At 12:59 PM make your way to the designated event coordinates shown. Keep acting like you know no one.

• 1:00 PM - At exactly 1:00 PM as determined by the GPS clock and a whistle blow, a container will be placed on the caboose steps at the designated coordinates and a signal will be given to signify the start of the event. You may then converge on the container for the official event. Log sheets will be handed out. BYOP (bring your own pen). Sign individual log sheets and drop them in the cache bucket. Then mingle and chat with your fellow cachers.

• 1:05 PM - Bring travel bugs and or coins to exchange with friends and or discover.

• 1:10 PM - Assemble for and take group photo. After the photo briefly mingle & chat.

A NEW CLUE FOR THE LOCATION OF "GC1A2HT - CN 78175" WILL BE REVEALED AT THIS TIME

• 1:14 PM - One minute warning is called "It is now 1:14!" Log slips will be pulled for the door prizes. FTF will be drawn at this time. Clean up and prepare to leave. Prepare to make your grand exit.

FTF DRAW PRIZE WILL BE FOR A UNACTIVATED "WORLD WIDE FLASH MOB V" GEOCOIN

• 1:15 PM - Make like a muggle and LEAVE the area! Log entries sealed & closed. If you missed the signing you missed the event.

Difficulty rating of 2 reflects the 15 minute allotted time period in which to claim the cache. If you aren't prompt you could miss it.

If your name is not on a log sheet you will not be able to log the event.

If everything goes right we will have several people converging on one spot for a 15 minute geocaching event and then disappearing. This could be lots of fun and maybe even raise a few muggle eyebrows.

The event will happen rain or shine! Please come prepared.
