This is the eighth meeting of second year of these monthly get-togethers (August - May), thus the title "#2-8". Starting February 2017, the location will be different every month.
This is a casual monthly gathering each month for local, not-so-local or visiting geocachers to swap stories, tips and advice. There is no formal program. The event begins at 1:30.
Location is extremely child friendly with several nearby play structures. There are restrooms nearby, but no food for sale. If you want to eat or drink something at this event, you'll have to bring it yourself. Pets on leashes are welcome in the park. Plenty of free parking nearby.
There will be a prize drawing at 2:00. The prizes are usually things that I have laying around my house, sometimes related to geocaching. You are welcome to add to the prizes if you have some things that you no longer want. One person's trash is another's stash of geo-swag.
People often bring their trackable collections to share with others. Some people bring trackables that they want to pass on to other cachers.
You are welcome to stay after 2:00, if you wish.
