9 a.m. Registration (and pre-sold merchandise pickup) begins

10-1 Turn in odd contaner swap containers
What is an odd container swap? We have stolen the idea from the
Greater Charlotte
Geocaching Club (GCGC) -- an ODDBALL CONTAINER SWAP:
Get your creative juices flowing!! If you'd like to participate,
bring a container (the odder the better) that you have made into a
cache and we'll have a blind swap so that everyone will get a
different container back. Since your container will be particularly
odd or camo-worthy, bring it hidden in a bag. We'll have a table
set up for these to be placed when you arrive.

etc.)

Camping
Camping at the event will be a little different this year. The
camp allows no tent or RV camping. So, if you want to camp, you
will need to reserve a bed in one of our 10 beautiful cabins.
The NCGO Fall Fling Store is now open! Visit the
www.ncgeocachers.org home page for a link to the store and reserve
a space in one of our cabins.
If you want traditional tent camping, beautiful Jones Lake State
Park is about 6 miles away. If you want to RV camp, there are
options in nearby White Lake. You are on your own there for
reservations!
Food
Dinner will cost $5 per adult with children under 5 free with
paying adult. Please do post a "will attend log" to let us know if
you can come and how many people will eat dinner and how many
adults/kids will be in your group as we need this information to
plan for food/drink purchases and activities. However, you will
need to pay for your meal tickets in the NCGO store before the
event.
Menu
- Chicken
- Vegetarian Chili
- Macaroni & Cheese
- Garden Salad
- Dressing or Stuffing (whatever you call it)

Pets
Animals (except service animals) are not allowed in the camp's
mess hall and cabins. Leashed pets are welcome for the day
event.
This event will be a great chance for North Carolina
geocachers and our neighbors to the north, south and west to spend
a little time in a less hectic setting just getting to know each
other while enjoying the 4F's of events: Food, Finds, Friends,
and
Fellowship which result in the all important 5th F
-FUN!
