Welcome to the Prince William County 2nd Annual Turkey Drop!
In the infamous Turkey Drop Episode of WKRP in Cincinatti that aired on Oct. 30, 1978, "The Big Guy" launched a Thanksgiving Radio Promotion to give away Turkeys to fans for Thanksgiving. The idea was to toss the birds from a helicopter into the awaiting crowd below. Since Turkeys don't fly, this large Turkey giveaway turned to a mass bombing of the awaiting bird lovers.
In the spirit of that episode, eight NoVAGO cachers have agreed to drop 8 Turkey caches in the Prince William County and Manassas areas with a code word inside that can be used to locate the bonus Turkey! Find all eight to unlock the coordinates for Second Annual Turkey Drop Bonus!
