M*A*S*H Awards Banquet Event Cache

This cache has been archived.

FlagMan: Time to say goodbye for now. Did someone say this was going to be an annual event?!? [:D] There's already another HoF (Hollenbeck) and rumors of more (Sweetwater/Mt. Miguel, Otay, Horsethief), so I guess time will tell. Thank you all for your great logs and for making this such a great time for all!!

Geocache Description:


Hey, everyone remembers M*A*S*H, right, whether it be the book by Richard Hooker, the 1970 movie starring Donald Sutherland and Elliott Gould, or the TV show with Alan Alda and a cast of characters. Well here's your chance to become part of the cast, as this is a COSTUME PARTY!! Yeah, that's right, come as your favorite M*A*S*H character!! Shouldn't be hard -- most of them just wore khaki pants and t-shirts, or surgical attire. We can all do THAT, can't we?!?

Harmon has been whining about an awards banquet for his HoF honors, so here we go. But the purpose of this event is two-fold:

1) to honor the various Hall of Famers -- heh, maybe someone will even qualify for the Super Hall of Fame by then by making it into all eight of the Halls of Fame!! There will be certificates all who have qualified for any HoF plus Olympic style medals for the top three finishers for each (see image, below, for the Medal winners).

2) to hand out some Purple Hearts to that long list of cachers who have made it through some trying medical challenges recently (or not-so-recently), as well as Silver Stars to those who supported them through their respective ordeals. Those of you who qualify (and you know who you are) just let me know if you would like to be honored with a Purple Heart (or if you would like to nominate someone else for a Purple Heart) and/or if you would like to hand out some Silver Stars and we'll make sure you are properly honored at the banquet. Anything from a sprained ankle to major surgery qualifies in this army, so don't be shy!!


In case you haven't been paying attention, here are the caches in the "Hall of Fame" series:
The "Find Every Cache in Calavera" Challenge
MTRP Hall of Fame
Iron Mountain Hall of Fame
Mount Woodson/Lake Poway Hall of Fame
Black Mountain Hall of Fame
Sycamore Canyon Hall of Fame
Tecolote Canyon Hall of Fame
Penasquitos Canyon Hall of Fame

So swing on by and see if you can guess who is who. Is that really Colonel Potter or is it just Harmon?!? Charles Emerson Winchester III or Duncan!?!? Radar O'Reilly or Triple Crown?!? Is that Hot Lips or Splashette?!?! BlondHiLites?!? Or maybe even lulu499 in a blond wig?!? Will ANYONE have the guts to come as Klinger in his most flattering skirt?!? Or Trapper John in his horizontal pinstripe suit from the Hong Kong tailor?!? And, yes, Harmon, THERE WILL BE PUD CAKE!!! In fact, we might even have a contest for the best PUD cake with Harmon, of course, being the judge!!

Anyhoo, here are the particulars:

Date: Sunday, June 6, 2010
Time: 6-9 p.m.
Venue: Giovanni's, 9353 Clairemont Mesa Blvd., 858-279-6700

Should be lots of fun, so don't miss it!!
