Geocache Description:


Groundhog Day v.50


February 2, 1963 was your average Saturday.  Of course it was Groundhog Day, but other than that not a whole lot was going on.   

  • The world record for the pole vault was broken by Pentti Nikula of Finland, after having been held by a succession of Americans for almost 35 years. Nikula cleared the bar at 16 feet, 8¾ inches using a fiberglass pole.
  • The Beatles went on tour at the bottom of an eight-act bill headed by 16-year old singer Helen Shapiro.
  • Topeka was experiencing a sunny but blustery day.  The wind was out of the north at 21 MPH.  The high for the day was 43 degrees.
  • And for the first time, my mom and dad became, well, a mom and dad. 
Let’s fast forward to February 2, 2013.  Heck, let’s party! 
 
I’d like to gather my family and friends to celebrate The Big Five-O.   Whether or not the little furry guy sees his shadow, this little soiree will be held at the Blind Groundhog Tiger Brewery and Restaurant (in the atrium) from 5:00 pm until approximately 7:00 pm. Please post a "will attend" log if you think you might stop by so I can give the restaurant an accurate head count. I really hope to see you there!
