A Leap Year Worldwide Multi Event
Why
2012 is a leap year, otherwise known as an intercalary year.
The problem is that our calendar tells us that there should be 365 days in a year, but the Earth actually takes 365.25 days to orbit the Sun. If this anomaly was not corrected for, after a while we would be marking the Summer Solstice in the middle of Winter! To correct for this anomaly, we add an extra day - 29 February - every four years. Thanks to this, we get the opportunity to sneak in an extra day's caching in 2012.
This event is also part of a world wide multi-event and a unique geocoin is being prepared for the event.
When:
On 29 Feb 2012 of course! Meet at 6.00pm.
What:
Come and swap your tall tales about the one that got away, or compare notes about those fiendishly difficult puzzles, or just come to put a face to those names you've seen in the log books. Most importantly, come along to tick off the 29th of Feb on your finds calendar.

The British Open Pub
1334 N. Scottsdale Road
