Geocache Description:

An event for all us cuckoos (I mean cachers) to celebrate the traditional First Day For Hearing A Cuckoo in Spring.
The event will run from 6-9pm in the Havana Suite, upstairs in Codonas.

There will be crafts & games with caching related prizes.
Also - the chance to log the unique Cuckoo Cache (GC4C35)

Food & drinks can be ordered at the bar.

A donation box to help cover the hire cost will be left out.

We all know that geocachers are a little bit 'Cuckoo' (Well, why else would we drop everything to hunt for a bit of tupperware in the bushes - even in the middle of the night?) so I thought that it would be a good idea to have an event to celebrate this.
April 14th is known as St Tiburtius' Day and is traditionally when you will hear the first cuckoo of Spring (Though we are active all the year round).
To celebrate this, we are going to have an evening of fun, crafts and games - for both kids & kids-at-heart in the upstairs Havana Lounge at Codonas, Aberdeen.
There will be some really cool caching-related prizes including unique caches and a special geocoin for one lucky person!
One of the other most exciting things of the evening - apart from some amazing facepainting by one of our local cachers - is that I have been given permission to bring the elusive (and rare) Cuckoo Cache along to this event! For those of you who have never heard of this cache, it is a now-discontinued type of cache called a 'travelling cache' which could actually move from one cache to another! (Think somewhat like a cache-sized TB - but with a log!)

We look forward to seeing as many of you there as possible.

Additional Hints (Decrypt)

Head out through the far end of the bowling area, follow the signs towards the toilets and then up the stairs on the right to the Havana Lounge. (Urnq bhg guebhtu gur sne raq bs gur objyvat nern, sbyybj gur fvtaf gbjneqf gur gbvyrgf naq gura hc gur fgnvef ba gur evtug gb gur Uninan Ybhatr.)
