I read somewhere on the Internet that August is the only month without a holiday. For geocachers, we have an August holiday: International Geocaching Day. Let's celebrate with ice cream.
From the offical Geocaching HQ blog:
"Ever since the 2011 Geocaching Block Party, geocachers worldwide come together for a day of celebration and smileys on the third Saturday of each August. This holiday is just one of the many quirks that make the global geocaching community so endearing. This year, we celebrate the amazing biodiversity of our planet. Can we count you in on the 12th anniversary of this special occasion?
"Log any geocache, Adventure Lab® Location, or Event on August 19 to earn the International Geocaching Day 2023 souvenir."
We'll meet at 05 Scoop Shop on East State Boulevard in Fort Wayne from 1:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. Stop by for a few minutes or the entire hour and swap stories on your latest geocaching adventures. The plan is that we'll be outside on the ice cream shop's porch. There is no expectation that attendees have to buy ice cream.
There is limited parking behind the shop in the alley. On-street parking is available on Pemberton, Kensington and Lynn.
