Dönerstag began in 2007 when German cachers met at kebab shops around Germany, all at the same time. The tradition caught on! The German word for Thursday is “Donnerstag.” Kebab translates to “Döner.” Last year, over 6000 cachers attended 233 Dönerstag events. The events were held all over Europe, from Germany and Austria to the United Kingdom and Switzerland.
On Thursday, April 13, geocachers will gather to celebrate the 11th annual Dönerstag. You can earn the first-ever Dönerstag souvenir by attending this event.
Let's gather to tell geocaching stories, and maybe find a cache or two. If you can only drop by for a few minutes, try and do it. This event will be part of events happening around the world on this date and will meet the Groundspeak requirements for a special souvenir if you log that you attended this event.
Please bring a dish to share. I will be providing charcoal, hot dogs, brats, buns, condiments, paper products, and water. There will also be some prizes raffled off.
As always, bring any geocoins/TB's you want to drop off or have discovered.
