Geocache Description:


What:   Community Celebration Event to celebrate the New Year

Where:  Scottsdale Xeriscape Garden at Chaparral Park

When:  Wednesday January 1, 2025 from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM

I am hosting my third event in AZ on January 1st, 2025.  The first two events were well attended even though they were both complete failures as far as the weather conditions.  I was awarded another Community Celebration Event and I am going to give it another try.  Three times a charm, right?  I have chosen a very well known site for the local geocachers.  I have also chosen a Plan B site a few hundred feet away that is partially covered if it is raining hard.  The Plan B site does have a few stairs so it is not wheelchair friendly.  See waypoints for the Plan B coordinates where I moved it that last time in the pouring rain.  

I have been collecting unactivated lackey tags and other unactivated trackables from the Seattle area to give away at the raffle. A Celebration event is required to be 2 hours long.  I will hold the raffle at half way through at 1:00 which gives folks time to visit and head out on the geocachaing trail if they cannot geochat for the the full 2 hours.   I hope to see you on New Years Day 2025.
