Last month I hosted a Travel Bug collection event in Florida. The idea was to have the geocachers down there drop off their travel bugs that needed to move up here. Despite the event being bookended by heavy thunderstorms, the turn out was great and the number of trackables I was given was unexpected. I ended up with 41 trackables to make their way northward. After traveling around a bit and fulfilling some of their goals, I now have 35 still in my possession:

So I thought it would be fitting to have another Geocaching Event to send these trackables on their way to fulfill their missions.
If you really want to move a specific trackable, I will allow you to reserve one trackable per geocaching account within a "Will Attend" log on a first come-first serve basis. Of course that means you will have to attend to pick up the trackable. You can grab more than one once you are at the event.
To minimize trackables being unlogged after the event, I will have a "sign out" system so I can nag (I mean... remind) you to pick up your trackable.
I will have cheat sheets of all the codes for everyone to discover all the trackables - so you do not have to write everything down.
