What
Welcome back for the summer series of Potluck in the Park events for the summer 2013 season!
The kids have had a great time these last few months playing in the gym, shooting hoops, kickball, tag, etc. It's back to them once again looking for frogs in the park and playing on the jungle gym. Those poor frogs - although who knows - they may have loved all of the attention. Come on out and join us for a night of kids playing (yelling, screaming, skinned knees) having such a great time, adults talking and enjoying each others company, watching the kids - remembering when they had that kind of energy, meeting new people, seeing old faces, and some good old food and drink! Talk Geocaching, cache hides, puzzles and the great stories of the trail. Bring your Bugs,Coins, Tags and Sig items for trade or exchange. Stop by for a visit or hang out for a while. You may wish to bring your own lawn chairs and bug juice. This past winter we have seen some new faces and welcome them (and anyone else) to the Potluck in the Park events. I hope you found us to be a friendly bunch and want to come again. Welcome all of you!!
When
July 18th, 2013 from 6pm - 8:30pm. (We always try to make the monthly events the 3rd Thursday of the Month to be consistent.)
Where
Palmer Park. Entrance is off of 52nd St. The posted coordinates are for the first shelter in the park. However, we have not been reserving any spots. If you don't find us at the first location (which are the event coordinates) keep on driving to the next pavilion or until you find our group. I'll try to have some yellow MiGO signs for better visibility so keep an eye out.
Who
Everyone is welcome at the event. New and old geocachers alike are all welcome!
What Do I Bring?
Some of you may NOT know this at all but the Southwest Chapter has the largest turn out of any monthly event in the state. Now, I don't want to brag, toot my own horn, or a na-na boo-boo to any of our other chapters. My point is this - the Geocaching community continues to grow and we have a lot of people. Our record attendance is near 150 people at some events although it seems to be a bit less (people must be out geocaching) in the summer months! That is honest a HUGE group of people and I'm so thrilled to see everyone of you.
Potluck by Last Name:
Everyone: Bring a Main Dish
A-M - bring a Salad or Side Dish
N-Z - bring a Dessert
We run out of food very quickly with the large attendance. Could you consider bringing something larger or extra if you are able?
Celebrating a Milestone?
We want to hear. Please post a note to the cache page or email me. We'll try to make an announcement and celebrate with you! I will also be adding celebrations here below so you're name and find number will be an official part of this event!
Special congratulations goes out to MarkAndNancy on their 1000th find at tonight's event.
Future Events:
Meet n Greet - August 18th
Adopt-a-Highway - July 2013
