The area is to be evacuated without a trace at exactly 2:30.  There is a great trail system (equipped with caches) at this site for anyone who hasn't done them yet. 

History of the WWFM: Podcachers Sonny and Sandy came up with the WWFM idea in 2007 after attending a mega-event. It was meant to be a fun “opposite” of a mega-event with all the cool aspects of a geocaching event, crammed into 15 minutes of excitement. "WW" - World Wide – represents these events occurring across the planet on the same day at (mostly) the same time! These caching events are intended to bring geocachers together in a creative way, as well as introduce others (newbies) to the hobby." (http://www.gcwwfm.com)

This is the 12th year for a WWFM on the Island. The key to a successful flash mob is to assemble suddenly in a public place and disperse after a few minutes leaving onlookers wondering what just happened!

Hope to see you there!
