Geocache Description:

This is the third year in a row that we are hosting this event, but it will likely be our last since the Army will probably need our services elsewhere next year.  This event will be held on Saturday, May 6th, 2017.  Don't let the event name confuse you; we hope to maximize everyone's ability to attend by hosting this event on Saturday (the 6th) rather than on Thursday (the 4th).


One With The ForceLEGO Chirrut Îmwe

Become "One with The Force" by coming dressed as a Star Wars character or at least wear your favorite Star Wars gear.

This promises to be an "out of this galaxy" event held at Fox Run Regional Park in northern Colorado Springs.  We have reserved pavilion #5 for this event. The event will kick off at 1 pm and will conclude at 5 pm. This will be a pot-luck style gathering. We will provide Bantha Burgers, Hutt Dogs, Mynock Meat Balls, and assorted beverages to include Yoda Soda. Please feel free to bring your own cleverly named food dishes to share. There are charcoal grills available at the site. Please note that no alcoholic beverages or glass bottles are allowed at Fox Run Park.


Planned event activities include:

Prize Drawings
Silent Auction
Costume Contest
Photo Ops with Star Wars characters
BB-8 Challenge
Rogue One Trivia Challenge
Star Wars themed Cache Adventure
GCCO Gold Coin Drawing


Colorado Springs Version

Custom "Cache Wars" geocoins will be available for purchase. These coins are part of a multi-event design but have custom finish and color combinations that are only available for the Colorado Springs area "May the 4th" events. You can't tell from the image, but the "Cache Wars" logo on the coin front will be in glitter gold. The other colors depicted are close, but will hopefully be a bit brighter on the actual coin.

A detailed schedule of planned activities will be provided in an announcement to this cache page as the event date draws closer.
Very special thanks to GCCO for providing for the pavilion rental and for donating a GOLD geocoin which will be won by one lucky attendee!
In order to make sure you get E-mail notifications of the event announcements, post your "Will Attend" log and provide the number of adults and younglings in your group. This will help us properly plan for food and activities.
