Geocache Description:

There will be 366 days, which means we all get one extra day of geocaching. So of course, we're celebrating with a souvenir! The souvenir can only be earned on Leap Day itself - February 29 - by attending a geocaching event.


Event will start at the coordinates 12.00 and will end 12.30

There is a popular tradition known as Bachelor´s Day in some countries allowing a woman to propose marriage to a man on February 29. If the man refuses, he then is obliged to give the woman money or buy her a dress. In upper-class societies in Europe, if the man refuses marriage, he then must purchase 12 pairs of gloves for the woman, suggesting that the gloves are to hide the woman's embarrassment of not having an engagement ring.
