10,000 geocachers will gather simultaneously at 300 sites around the globe for a...
WORLD WIDE FLASH MOB!
A Flash Mob is a large group of people who assemble suddenly in a public place, do something unusual for a brief period of time, and then quickly disperse.
This WWFM will take exactly 15 minutes:
18:55 Arrive in the Food Court Area of Clearwater Mall and just mill around..
19:00 The one who fell to the dark side of the Force appears... holding "the book of logs". State your intent by collecting and completing your 'tag' from him. BYOP!! Be sure that your tag is entered into the book of logs.
19:08 A gruelling battle unfolds... which side are you on? Will you fight?? BYOL (lightsaber)!!
19:10 Take a group photo
19:15 End of WWFM X - everyone goes their separate way.
NOTE: - At precisely 19:15 the "one with the book of logs" will leave. The event area will be vacated without a trace!!!
Events that happen after 19:15 do not count as part of this event.
There will be a LIMITED number of special edition WWFM X geocoins available on sale from Capri Cache Store.
About WWFM – World Wide Flash Mobs:
A WWFM is a fun and friendly way to promote geocaching around the world: Thousands of geocachers at dozens of coordinated events spanning the globe, gather at the same time.
Sonny and Sandy of the PodCacher podcast came up with the WWFM idea in 2007 after attending a mega-event. It was meant to be the “opposite” of a mega-event i.e. all the cool aspects of a geocaching event, but crammed into just 15 minutes of excitement.
An added dimension is represented by the letters WW - World Wide - these events occur across the planet on the same day at (mostly) the same time!
These caching events are intended to bring geocachers together in a creative way, as well as introduce others (newbies) to the hobby.
This event is part of the "World Wide Flash Mob X" occurring simultaneously around the globe organized by Team PodCacher.
