When: Saturday, December 26th, 2015. 6:00 pm.
Where: Fuddruckers @ 1509 John B White Sr Blvd Spartanburg, SC 29301; we will be meeting in the banquet room.
Who: EVERYONE!! The young, the young at heart, the curious, the new-to-geocaching, the experienced cacher.
What: Well of course we are at an eating joint so there will be some eating going on. Also, we will have a Geocoin Gift Exchange for all those crazy geocoin collectors. See below for the details.
Since it is Christmas time, we thought we would hold another Geocoin exchange! Now, some people might have no idea what that is. So...INFORMATION!: Everyone, who chooses to participate, gets a randomly drawn number when they bring an unactivated and unlabeled gift wrapped geocoin. No one leaves until all is done. Remember: the person who picks first always gets to pick last. The person with the lowest number chooses a gift, opens it, holds it up for all to see, and starts a line which will soon include everyone who participates. Each person in order then decides whether to pick a present off the table or choose from the already opened presents. Once he/she decides and the gift is either opened or exchanged, they will stand in the gift line as well. If they chose to take an already opened gift then the cacher that lost their gift gets to choose from the remaining wrapped geocoins. Opening and swapping continues until all presents have been chosen, opened, and swapped. Finally, the person who picked first gets to choose from all the presents, or keeps what he/she has already received. All gifts are to be trackable, unactivated geocoins. No trackable tags, no geo-sticks, or any other typical items of exchange allowed...GEOCOINS ONLY. Don't have an unactivated trackable geocoin? GroundSpeak has several approved vendors that you can check out: Or, you can go on your own and find that special geocoin to exchange. Either way, the event has been planned with plenty of time to spare to order and receive a geocoin via mail. Who knows, you may even come across a few coins that you want to add to your personal collection. NOTE: You do not have to purchase a meal or participate in the Geocoin Gift Exchange in order to receive credit for the event. If you decide not to eat just come on over to the banquet room, and join in on the Christmas fun and fellowship! REMINDER: To participate in the actual Geocoin exchange, you have to bring a wrapped unactivated geocoin.
Lastly, there will also be a small prize for the cacher who wears the ugliest Christmas sweater. Good luck!
