WINNERS
Everyone who got outside and put in the effort to finish the card is a winner in my book! That why there is a draw for everyone who participated and tried to finish their card! Even harder for those who have been playing this game for years and still managed to be able to find remaining caches they haven't found yet! With this being the first year of Bingo and needed to work out the kinks, the option of find or place caches has been added. It helps out those who have found most of the local caches and also gives the rest of us something new and creative to find as they are themed. You don't have to finish the card to be entered into the draw for participants. Just post your card with whatever you have completed to be entered. They have to by posted by November 30th. Prizes will be passed out at the community celebration event at Middle Cove Beach in August but if you would like to receive yours beforehand, just let me know. Planning to come up with some little prizes to give out for different things at the event to make it fun!
1st Place: hScouter - posted her completed card on November 2. 2020.
2st Place: dalmations - close second to hScouter finishing on November 3, 2020.
3rd Place: Slothlover10 - submission completed all but 4 putting her in 3rd place on December 1, 2020.
Participants Draw: saucermcfly - submission completed all but 6 on December 1, 2020.
With the days getting shorter and the weather getting colder, especially with all the rainy days we've been getting lately, it has taken away some of our caching time and given me time to create a new game so get out your Bingo dabbers,another addition to try to make your geocaching a little more fun between January 1 - December 1, 2020.
A cache is hiddden with some bingo cards inside for you to obtain, Please don't take them if you don't intend on playing and leave them for others who want to participate. I will have some with me at The Atlantic Battlecache 2020 Kickoff, The Occassion Tree Christmas Decorating, Goodbye 1019 and Hello 2020 events. Please just leave a note here so that I know how many are participating.
I will have a little something for everyone who participates that achieves at least 5 goals. If anyone would like to leave little trinkets suitable as prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners and a random draw between all participants, that would be awesome! Just add it to the cache with a note stating it is for the Bingo prizes or if we attend an event at the same time, I can get it then.
As you complete the tasks on your card, please add a picture of the cache or the signed log to the Bingo cache page. Please add your geo name and task as the name of the picture. Caches cannot be used more than once to complete tasks. Caches have to be new finds (you haven’t found them before) with the exception of the Virtual cache. We only have one Virtual Cache available locally so if you have already found it in the past, just take a new picture with it.
If you have any ideas for things to be added/removed for next year’s game, send me a message or if see any changes that should be made to the form, just write them them on the form and I’ll get it from you when we meet up for some little prizes.
GOOD LUCK! Check back for any updates throughout the game.

UPDATES:
February 9, 2020
First, Second & Third Place Prizes: A little prize will be awarded to the first three bingo card completions. If we do not achieve three completed cards by the end of the bingo year, the winners will be chosen by the closest to completion and then the date the blocks were achieved. The person who completed the equal number of blocks with the earliest date, will be the winner.
January 2020
Virtual Cache: The new Find Signal The Frog Locationless Cache GC8FR0G can also be used to fill this block as well.
If you found the Bingo cache prior to January 1 and signed the log, you can fill in this block. No sense having to go twice! Another option is to attend the event of January 5 and that will be considered a found as well, where the cache is not winter friendly (didn't expect so much snow already!).
In my account in lists, you can find lists of caches I have found so far for Halloween themed and Christmas themed caches. If you have found and others, let me know and I'll add them to the lists.
