This year’s meet & greet prior to the 2018 Albany Challenge VIII (GC7TF5X) event will be held on Friday, August 24. We’ll be meeting in the fellowship hall of the Albany Mennonite Church, 3405 Kizer Avenue NE, Albany, OR 97322 from 5 to 7 (or until the last person leaves). As always, this is a time to meet other geocachers and swap stories from your summer geocaching adventures, meet new geocachers and renew old acquaintances. This event began 8 years ago as a picnic in the park so you’re welcome to bring your “picnic” and fellowship around the table. We’ll do the usual introductions and give you a preview of the coin challenge the next day.
For those of you that are interested, later that evening, the annual Night Glow event that’s part of the Northwest Art & Air Festival, will take place just up the road at the fairgrounds.
