Geocache Description:

06 January 2024, 09:00 - 10:30

Come one, come all and start the new year meeting old friends and making new ones. You might want to team up or go solo. A hot meal, and good company on a snowy cold winter morn, what more could one ask for? Whether you're new to geocaching or an old pro come on out and grab some grub and share your caching stories with fellow cachers. Then, if you are so inclined, head on out and find a cache or even make a day of it.

Breakfast in the Blustery Burbs (BBB) began in 2005 in Bolingbrook IL at a time when events were quite rare and I thought it would be nice to get together with friends and it's continued ever since. Periodically the location has been changed to keep things fresh, with events mainly in Bolingbrook but also in Gurnee, Northbrook, and Tinley Park. It's time again to mix things up, time for a change. So this year we bring you BBB in Elgin. There are some fabulous forest preserves and tons of caches nearby, and a good time is guaranteed to be had by all.



Events January 6th:

Where:
Golden Corral Restaurant

Elgin, IL 60123
Phone (847) 531-7277 (mgr John)

Gratuity:
We ask that each adult attending drop $1 in a tip jar which will be located at the sign-in table. The tip $ is given to the servers who work our area at the end of the event.

TRACKABLES:
Trackables that will fit in a regular-sized container are welcome and will be assured to move on from the event. Large trackables are the responsibility of the person who brings them, you must find someone who agrees to be responsible for moving them on.

Will there be snow?:
Maybe the right question is; will there be a polar vortex? Throughout the history of this event we've had a foot of snow within 24 hours prior to the event twice, temperatures below zero once, an absolutely lovely day once, and the rest were a mixed bag of cold windy days. That's the point of the event, the worse the weather the warmer the food and fellowship will be.

Event Caches:
Every year we encourage the placement of caches for the event. If you would like to hide caches in conjunction with this event your efforts are truly appreciated. Please take into account the following guidelines for placing event caches....

  • Ask the reviewer to publish the cache prior to the event, he will pick the date and time. (simply add a reviewer note to your cache page before submitting it.)
  • Email Mike Swaney at greenback@gogeocaching.com with the name, and GC number of the new cache and it will be added along with your name to the list of event caches.
