Our Geo-Poker Run Thing will have at least 7 NEW permanent logable caches!

♣ All caches in the poker run will be on park property, so no vehicles will be needed.

♣ There will be a drawing held at 9:30 for an opportunity to become the FTF (First To Find) for several of the new caches.

♣ Winners will receive the coordinates for the FTF chance they won, at 9:45 or before. This will provide them with at least a 15 minute head start to hunt their FTF cache.

♣ Winners must return to the barn after they find their FTF cache where along with the remaining poker run players, everyone will then get the coordinates for the full list of new geocaches.

♣ The full list of new geocaches will contain ONLY the new cache listings, and will be available as both a printed hand-out and as a GPX file.

♣ To use the optional GPX file:

♥ Geocachers should load a Pocket Query of their unfound caches for the area, prior to arriving at the event. (Requires a Premium Membership to geocaching.com.)

♥ A GSAK load of new geocaches in GPX file format will be added to the existing geocaches in your GPS.

♥ Please bring your own USB data cable to help insure that we can connect to your GPS unit to load the GPX files from the computers we will have at the event.

♣ More info may be detailed here later.
