Geocache Description:

Just another little Sask. Challenge-all about the Polite Names of some Provincial caches!


"Canadians are all so polite and really nice"....sound familiar?  This is a rather common stereotype, one of the nicer ones at that!  We are, as a society, very polite when compared to some other countries but Oh how we all know this isn't true of ALL Canadians or even all Canadian cachers crying!  As cachers, we have all undoubtedly encountered others who were not so kind or nice, either in person or in the virtual world of online logs. Sometimes, a simple TFTC would be a bonus...but it's ok...  As impolite and/or rude a small number may be, I think it's safe to say that  MOST Canadian cachers are polite, respectful people who don't want to get bogged down in silly stuff , we just want to have fun in the great outdoors(well, for the most part) and pave our own paths in this awesome activity called 'geocaching'!

So, with this appreciation for good manners and nice people, I thought of how many caches out there actually reflect such good manners!  This is where the idea for this challenge came from....

THE CHALLENGE?

1) Find 26 caches, WITHIN SASKATCHEWAN, that have at least one of the words 'PLEASE' , 'THANKS' , 'THANK YOU' . 'WELCOME' or 'SORRY'  in the cache name/title.

2) Once you have done this, post proof of challenge completion-either in a public bookmark or in a 'note' on the online Cache page.

The list must include the (Saskatchewan) Cache Name, GC #, and the date you found it.  

One cache name can be used only once.  For example, if you found a cache with 'Please AND Thanks' in its name, you can use this particular cache ONLY ONCE.  This is a challenge, right?  I have to do something to make it not so easy!wink

3)  Adopted caches DO count for this challenge-the focus is on the NAME of the cache, not on who hid it.  

The cache IS at the posted coordinates BUT before you post an FOUND Log online, you must complete the challenge. "Found' logs posted online without accompanying proof of challenge completion will be deleted (SORRY, but them's the rules!).devil

Please do not seek out the cache or sign its paper log until you have completed the challenge and provided proof of completion online per Point#2.   Let those who have taken the time to prepare their list and/or ensured challenge completedness have the pleasure of a fresh new log to sign.  This is just being polite after all smiley.

This is probably one of the easiest Sask Challenges I've prepared....I hope you aren't too sick of preparing LISTS but hey, this is easier and faster than solving some really complicated puzzles that can drive you crazy as you try to solve them!  It's also a way for those without tons of time or other ability to travel great distances on a regular basis to be able to complete provincial-based challenges ! 

Terrain difficulty of 2 due to cache being placed in winter...there is SNOW involved but the cache is WF

Now PLEASE, go have fun!  THANKS!
