Geocache Description:


The SF2021 - Spring Fling Geocaches were placed for the 2021 Calgary Spring Fling Geocache Release to encourage cachers to hit the caching trail and either find or hide a few caches. This cache has been placed for the 2021 Calgary Spring Fling Geocache Release with the intention that it be found during the two week Geocache Release beginning at 8:00 am MST on Saturday, March 13th, 2021 through Sunday, March 28th, 2021.

The 2021 Spring Fling Geocaching Release will be a simple hunt for geocaches as we're waiting for the coming of Spring. Come on out and join us to celebrate the hopeful coming of warmer weather.

This cache is at the posted coordinates.

Background

Welcome to my series of odd and miscellaneous challenges.

I wanted to call this the Social Butterfly challenge but it appears that name is overused and does not seem to represent the same challenge.  Let's hope the name Event-Full Calendar Challenge is unique and memorable enough to stand out from all the other event challenges.

Don't worry; this challenge isn't about attending an event on every day of the year. That would be a very difficult challenge which I am a looooong ways from completing. I suspect most people are in the same boat. Fortunately, this Event-Full Calendar challenge is for just a subset of days.

I've been working on this challenge for a while now and I finally completed it on Sept 7, 2020 thanks to Sleepy_hollow's 2020 Labour Day Flash Mob on Nose Hill event.  I know a couple of other local cachers have been waiting for this challenge to be released so here it is, finally.

The Challenge

To qualify for this challenge, you must attend 50 events, but here's the gotcha, you must attend

  • one event on each day of the week (Monday through Sunday)
  • one event from each month of the year (January - December)
  • and finally one event on every day of the month, from the 1st to the 31st.

In total, that means you must attend 7+12+31 = 50 unique events.

The Requirements

Some more things about the challenge to be aware of:

  • Only the following event types can be used to complete this challenge - regular, CITO, mega, giga, HQ block party, HQ celebration, lost and found/community celebrations.
  • Events must be logged on the actual date of the event.
  • This is not a streak challenge. You do not need to attend the events in a row to qualify.
  • Events can only be used once for this challenge.  In other words, an event being used for the Tuesday category can not also be used as the qualifying event for December.  You must attend 50 unique events.
  • Past events count.

The fine print

CO reserves the right to make any changes to this challenge if any issues or ambiguities are discovered.  CO will be fair but has the final say on any events, caches, finds, or logs that are questionable.  CO reserves the right to delete any logs if problems are found.

Finding This Cache

Do NOT access this cache from Highway 2. Please use the nearby service road instead.

Please remember to be respectful of the cache location. Be aware of how and where the cache is "attached" so that it can be put back in exactly the same way and in the same place for the next person(s) to enjoy. Only the "inner" portion of the cache needs to be removed to log the cache. The container may not be accessible during the winter months.

Logging This Cache

As with any challenge caches, you are welcome to physically sign the log for this cache and log it as "Write Note" if you haven't met the challenge's requirements yet. Please bring your own pen(cil)/writing instrument to sign the log.

Please use this Project-GC challenge checker below to verify if you have qualified for this challenge.

PGC Checker

You can only log a "Found It" entry online after you've completed the challenge and signed the log. All non-qualifying "Found It" logs will be deleted without notice.

Missing Event Dates?

This is a PSA to help out those cachers who haven't completed this challenge yet. I thought it would be useful to consolidate the various event days that cachers are missing into one infographic. Please feel free to write a note if you are missing specific dates or months as well.
