AACC Thursday, November style. Welcome to a location with which we should all be familiar. With just seven days and a wake up until "Black Friday", you can pick out the perfect spot to pitch a tent for your extended wait in line for the "best deals" of the season. I expect that Lacey1961 and 2112Rush will be at this location in tents as soon as November 17th to get a shot at being the first to sign the event log before moving over to their spot (guarded by the fair Shonda181) in front of Best Buy.
The AACC is the brainchild of "Papa" from SNAP, a local geo-legend and autobiographical geograffitist, who began this tradition during August of 2013. In August, 2013, Groundspeak ran a Challenge “31 Days of Geocaching” to get people to find a cache every day of the month. For each day found, cachers were awarded a souvenir. "Papa" came up with an idea to run a daily, weekday event to allow people to pick up an “Event” find during the work week. Because we formed a little support group at AACC events, Papa decided to make this an ongoing thing. Approximately every two weeks or so we are getting together to swap stories, plan trips and outings, trade trackables and maybe provide each other with tips and intel on caches in the area. The AACC regulars are taking turns hosting AACC events. We recently celebrated our 50th AACC event. This is my fifth hosting gig for this series of event caches.
Come on out and meet some local cachers. It is a chance to take a moment with friends in a random parking lot (OK, you know that the rotating band of hosts have their favorites) somewhere in the Tidewater area to get back in touch with your inner Geocacher.
