Why it is in the afternoon?
This afternoon event gives everyone plenty of Geocaching time before the event to grab those caches on the drive to Canungra, and enough daylight after, to grab the ones you missed on the way back home.
The location is D. J. Smith Park and this is in the heart of the town of Canungra. There is car parking at the park and along the towns streets all around the park area. We will be there early to secure a good spot for everyone.The area is suitable for wheelchairs and prams to gain access to where we will be.
We will supply a sausage sizzle for afternoon tea to recharge the batteries, there are some shops and cafes beside and across the street for any other refueling needs.
I have also just found out that on this evening around 6pm the town will host it's annual Christmas Carols by Candlelight at Moriarty Park just around the corner. I will add more details as they come to hand, it is a great night out for the family and its free!
What we will be doing?
We will have a "Lolly Throw" for the geokiddies!
The geokids can also enjoy some bubble blowing fun!
Lots of stories and general chatter about all things Geocaching.
We will have a few "Lucky Attendance" prizes!
We will have "The Last Lolly" morale box!
(this is a box full of lollies that is shared during the event, whoever eats "the last lolly" is allowed to keep the container and hide it as a cache anywhere they like!)
The town of Canungra is dog friendly, just be sure to keep them on a leash and under control.
How far is it?
For your drive to Canungra it is just under 1 hour South East from Ipswich, 1 hour South from Brisbane Airport
and 1 hour North West of Coolangatta Airport.
(This doesn't count for all the times you stop for a geocache along the way.)
What do you need to bring?
Smiles and a hat
Chairs or Picnic Rugs
A plate of food if you wish to add it to the table
Trackables to show or drop off, we will set up a table for this.
Pen to log the nearby geocaches with and swaps if you need them
Bring a friend! Everyone is welcome, If they are not players of our game yet we can help you to welcome them to our hobby!
There will be people of all ages and geocaching abilities here,
some with just a few precious finds and others with lots who are always happy to tell a few stories and slip out a few hints.
