SDG On Tour #14 - Telford Event Cache

This cache has been archived.

South Derbyshire Geo: Our 14th tour brought us to Telford for the day, two days after Storm Doris. Fortunately the really bad weather had abated, and whilst we walked in drizzle some of the day, it didn't stop the usual laughs and banter between the attendees. We covered 10.2 miles in total.
There was quite a gathering as we arrived in the morning for the event at Telford Central Station. The log book was signed, trackables exchanged and introductions made. We always love it when new friends join us on our packed schedule of geocaching for the day.
However this wasn't as big as the gathering on our return which consisted of the participants of a Britain First march. Fortunately the police let us through the throngs of people in balaclavas to the Beefeater pub next to the station, where we rounded off the day with drinks and a meal.
Highly recommend the burger van in the layby halfway round our route ... his bacon butties and cheesy chips are a must! We thoroughly enjoyed the day, so thanks to all the COs for the caches placed and found by us. We had a 100% find record today.

Geocache Description:

South Derbyshire Geocaching is going on tour!! For our next stop we will be in Telford, and we know many there will want to meet us, so we are holding an event to make that possible!!

Please gather just outside Telford Central Station at 9.00am - balloons and welcome banners would be very appropriate! We are accustomed to people cheering, applauding and taking photographs when we arrive somewhere!!  We will have a banner too!!

We will be arriving by train at 9.08am and we will immediately make our way to the listed coordinates.  Once there we will be happy to sign autographs and chat to the fans, share trackables and geocoins and take some to distribute as we explore Telford for the day. We will stay there till at least 09:40am so bring hot drinks and snacks to keep yourself going!!

Everyone is welcome to the meet-up, and if anyone would like to join us for a packed schedule of caches around the area for the day you would be very welcome to.
