Anyone familiar with the mountains knows about "swap meets", where you could buy, sell or trade livestock and everything from baseball cards to second-hand clothing.
In that tradition, the Big Sandy Area GeoCachers are hosting an ol' fashioned (geocaching) swap meet on Saturday night in downtown Williamson, WV. Come on by around 7:30 p.m. or so, bring your swag if you got some, and trade coins, trackables, pathtags, cards and other items with your fellow cachers. Heck, even some of 'em ain't from around these parts. You'll never know what you might find.
If you don't have any swag to trade, come anyway and we bet you'll find somebody willing to swap a story or two about a favorite caching trip.
********** Announcement **********
BSAG is teaming up with Groundspeak to help roll out the new Airstream trackable tag. Geocaching.com and Airstream are giving away a select number of special trackables and we will have them on hand to give away at this event! The trackables come with a copy tag so you can keep one and send the other on it's way.
2,000 unactivated tags will be distributed nationwide, and Airstream really wants to see them activated and traveling far and wide, so they are including a copy tag for you to keep. Plus, you can upload photos of the tags in action to the Airstream Facebook page for a chance to win some swag. The slogan is: "Find one and take it some place incredible, whether it’s a big city or the great outdoors."
Here's a link to the Airstream promotion page on GC.com. And Here's what the trackable will look like:
We'll wrap up around 11:00 p.m., but we hear the neighbors might have some cold drinks, so we might just hang around a spell.
