This is a Flash Mob Gathering of Geocachers
Only 15 minutes long! You MUST be present DURING this time to claim the event.
Please BYOP! (Bring your own pen)
Summary: The Basic Idea
WWFM X - World Wide Flash Mob coordinated events (see growing bookmark list)
Thousands of geocachers at hundreds of events all around the globe, gathering at the same time
Join us in Balboa Park (near the Zoo, next to the small railroad) for a fast, fun event featuring a large game of "Yoda (Simon) Says"
Stick around afterwards to enjoy the Park or join a group to go geocaching nearby!
The Plan
The event will begin precisely at 10:00 am on Saturday, May 4.
An Orange Bucket placed on ground zero will signal the start of the event!!!
The event will be facilitated by volunteers. If you'd like to be a WWFM volunteer, please contact us (podcacher@gmail.com) and let us know.
Prior to the start time, mosey and wander about non-challantly ... Then when the bucket is set down ... converge on the Ground Zero!
There are many free parking lots in Balboa Park.
YOU WILL NEED A PEN or PENCIL to sign a log sheet.
There will be an event "meal", trackables box for trading, and a raffle for very cool prizes.
We will play a quick, fun game of "Yoda Says" and then we'll walk the short distance over to the front of the zoo (additional waypoint), and take a quick group photo. After which, we will scatter in all directions leaving the muggles to wonder, what just happened?!?
Feel free to wear or bring any Star Wars related gear to join in the fun!
ADD this event to your watchlist for more information!
