A Geocaching Breakfast

Buffet Style

The HNY Event is now in its second decade

 

 

Most people have New Years Day off and the only thing to do is watch a football game or two in the afternoon. Why not spend the morning meeting other geocachers. You can talk about your geocaching adventures, cache hides, ideas, puzzles and share your stories of the hunts from the past year.

Bring your bugs, coins and sig items to trade or exchange.

This breakfast is very good and you will not leave hungry. If you have any doubts ask other geocachers that have attended the event and eaten the breakfast they will attest as to how good the breakfast is. :)
