Geocache Description:

A caching event to meet fellow cachers, to discuss all things Geocaching, exchange Travel Bugs and Coins, and get help with those puzzle's you just can’t solve, whilst having fun doing it all.


Having lived in Torquay and Exeter for a number of years and spending nearly all of my caching time in the great county of Devon, I have made a number of friends through the caching community here and neighbouring counties. Since my last event I have moved back from Swindon to Torquay, so it would be great to see everyone again. A lot has changed in a year since I last hosted an event here and is now turning into an annual event since the first one held on my birthday - 30th November 2011. It would be fantastic to get all the cachers together again and catch up. Everyone welcome new and old and you will have the opportunity to discuss all things Geocaching, exchange Travel Bugs and Coins, and get help with those puzzle caches that you are having difficulty to solve. I know Devon now has a lot of events to choose from but it would be great to see you all again if you can make this midweek event.
