This cache has been archived.

Cachin' Kitty & Crew: This most excellent event is behind us. Thanks for being there to set a Bahrain GeoCachers attendance record!!! Woohoo... 15 attendees!!!! Not counting Moose Mob who would surely have had he been in country.

FMCP-2 will be somewhere far fm Bahrain during another full moon, but do drop in if you're in the neighborhood.

All the best caches and all the best views,
CK&C

Geocache Description:

24 June 2013, 00:00 - 13:00

Its after dark, we’re in the desert, RayBans and moonscreen are ‘ON,’ the moon is full and the lycanthropes are on the prowl... Let’s GO Caching~!~!!~!!!

Welcome to the Full Moon Cachin’ Platoon (FMCP), a Bahrain GeoCachers event.

 ( www.facebook.com/groups/BahrainGeocachers )
 
Before:
When ‘WILL ATTENDing’ this event please include one or two nearby GC’s by <CacheName> you’d like to visit during the event. We’ll regroup to caravan to the most popular and get some good photos as we cache the night away! 
 
Remember its nighttime in the dusty desert…  
-Fill your fuel tank. 
-Bring night gear, head lamp or flashlight (will this be a flashlight mob?) and technology support. 
-Wear appropriate after dark desert attire (perhaps something visible from a distance). 
-Attach your usual daylight GC gear to prevent its loss down a dark hillside. 
-Fill your fuel tank and check your spare tire. (Shukhran!)

During:
We’ll meet-up at 20:45 and caravan out at 21:00 to score a few most wished for caches in small groups and catch a few more nearby, before returning back to GZ ~23:00.

After:
Hangout for an hour’s worth of animated cache’versation, discoverable/ trackable sharing, photo & tall tale swapping, coffee and whatnot (this establishment closes at 23:45 weeknights). Go home, shower, nap and go to work. Yay! Work!!!

Event Creator’s note:
This light of the moon GeoCaching experiment will pave the way to future events, or be the last of it’s kind…. If you are a lycanthrope or have other full moon-related, self control issues, PLEASE keep your wild side chained down. The full moon’s power can make a smart person do things they wish they hadn’t. This is to be an evening of ‘good, clean, GeoCaching fun.’ The last thing we need are phone calls to the ambulance, police or tow truck because one of us didn’t think before we acted. The desert is dark and the terrain treacherous, even under the full moon, and we will be many kilometers from assistance if we break anything.
After the success of this inaugural event I’d like to see the Bahrain GeoCachers pull-off a quarterly FMCP event for the good of GeoCaching.
