Geocache Description:

For those of you who know me, you know how addicted I am to travel bugs / trackables / TBs / whatever you want to call them.

One of my missions in this crazy game we play is to keep my TB count higher than my finds, it's currently lagging but only just with 2085 caches found, and 2134 trackables logged (you can find this info on the top of your public profile page, if you are interested).

 


After the success of the first one, here we are again!

I'd like to hold an event where we bring our own TBs to show off / discover, but also pass on any we have collected with the hope of assisting them to make their goal.

This event, the second travel bug catch, will be held on Sunday 25 June 2017 in Airey Park, Homebush West (a short stroll from Homebush West train station), from 3pm to 4pm. Come one, come all, and I don't just mean travel bugs! All geocachers welcome, with or without TBs. It would be helpful if any travel bugs you did bring with you also had information attached to them about their goals / missions. For those of you who aren't aware, you can print an info sheet straight from the geocaching.com website by opening up the trackable's web page and then selecting 'print info sheet' over on the right hand side under the menu 'trackable options', it should be about the third option down, under the found it option and the watch it options.

The site is a park with a picnic table which I will try to secure however it may be beneficial to bring your own seating (a fold up chair or picnic blanket) and there is no kiosk or the like - if you'd like food or drinks, both the Flemington and Homebush shops are nearby. I even have a portable shelter in the case of wet weather. There is a children's playground nearby, and a grassy open space for them to run off their energy so they don't bug you (he he see what I did there?). The Cooks River cycleway also runs through this park. There is plenty of free parking both on The Crescent and Bates Street.

We will do an official photo at 3.30pm, and may even have a TB-related raffle of some kind (if I can get organised).
