Welcome to the Christmas Eve Caching Celebration (CECC), why have we called it this, because Geocaching needs more Acronym’s.
Christmas comes but once a year, so Christmas Eve is a good time to have a Geocaching Event! Let’s celebrate the holidays with our caching friends! We love Christmas so much that we decided to spend Christmas Eve with the Geocaching Community. We shall also present our lights to everyone because we believe they are pretty neat.
This will be a kid friendly event as we think they will love the lights and decorations (sorry we couldn’t do a bouncy castle)
Everyone is welcome to attend whether you are an old timer at the game or a newbie to the game, if you are just starting out feel free to approach the guy in the red Santa shirt (or one of his children) as we will make you feel welcome and maybe introduce you to some people, as we know how hard it is at your first event or 2.
Date: 24th of December 2021
Time: 7:15 PM to 9:15PM.
Where: Number 2 in the driveway, just head to the lights.
The plan: Chat, do a Sneaky Secret Santa, look at our Christmas lights and eat candy canes and other goodies.
Feel free to dress up festively.
So, what is a Sneaky Secret Santa?? Firstly, each team brings a wrapped and unmarked gift which costs between ten dollars and twenty dollar, it could be something silly, something nice or something caching related. Team names are randomly drawn, and they select a gift — with a twist. On the first turn, the person assigned with #1 picks out a gift and opens it so all can see what it is. On the second turn, the person assigned with #2 gets the choice of “stealing” #1’s unwrapped gift or choosing a wrapped one from the pile. If #2 steals #1’s gift, then #1 must choose and open a wrapped gift. As subsequent players take their turns, they either select a new gift or take any already opened gift from any of the other players. (This will be explained again at the event, so if you don’t understand that’s ok! Just bring a wrapped gift!)
It is not a requirement to participate in the Sneaky Secret Santa, you can still have fun watching it. Just don’t bring a gift if you don’t want to participate.
Individuals attending this Event must comply with current Government Health requirements which includes that all participants be double vaccinated.
