This is a bit of an out of the ordinary event. Come pay tribute to the late artist, Andy Warhol, as we gather to celebrate his birthday. Every year dozens of people show up to wish him a happy birthday and sometimes there is even cake.
Andy Warhol was born on this date in 1928 and the first year that the cache event was held, when we arrived for our flashmob, we found a party already underway!! We had so much fun celebrating his birthday with the regulars, and they loved that we were there and they invited us back. Cachers have been joining in the celebration since 2014, even during years that no event cache got posted!
So, let us all meet at his marker around 5pm. We will mingle until around 6 although the party will be going on until at least 7...and many times we see people via the webcam sticking around much later.
So that we are easily identified, I challenge you all to wear something that says you're a geocacher without you having to say you are a geocacher!! The crazier the better. There will be a prize given to the best by vote...and one for the person who travels the farthest too!!
There is a Webcam Waymark watching his marker that you can log as well as Andy's grave waymark which is listed as a grave of a famous person. Also, if you would like, you can visit the webcam website and find your own image...if you can't do it on site, just take note of what time you posed so it is easier to find yourself.
Please be respectful when parking, and if you are of able body, reserve the closer parking for those that aren't as mobile. There maybe some uphill walking involved to get to the actual gravesite. Also note that the entrance to the cemetery is on Connor Road, not route 88!!
