Geocache Description:

No Matter How You Say It, That's A Lot Of Days - Dept

Back on May 3, 2000, Oregon resident Dave Ulmer posted the following in USENET group sci.geo.satellite-nav
Well, I did it, created the first stash hunt stash and here are
the coordinates:
N 45 17.460
W122 24.800

Lots of goodies for the finders. Look for a black plastic bucket
buried most of the way in the ground. Take some stuff, leave
some stuff! Record it all in the log book. Have Fun!

Stash contians: Delorme Topo USA software, videos, books, food,
money, and a slingshot!
With that brief post, the game was afoot. As days passed, more "stashers" hid their treasure around the world for others to find. As the years past the game grew into millions hidden of varying types and events emerged (like this one!) for Geocachers to get together, visit, share experiences and form groups for future expeditions.
The event is set for January 9th, 2014, from 5:30 PM to 8:30 PM at the Old Spaghetti Factory, 51 N San Pedro St. A downstairs dining room is reserved, which should accommodate up to 100 people. Food ordering is from the menu.
An Event Geocoin is in the works and will be about $10. There will also be a raffle for prizes.
