Chili Cook Off
Think you make a killer bowl of chili? This year we will be giving you a chance to show what you've got. Let us know in your "will attend" log, then bring a 2 to 3 quart crockpot of your chili to the event. Attendees will have an opportunity to vote for their favorite chili, and the traveling trackable trophy will go to the winner.
Special Token:
The WGA has made a special token for this event. It is free to those that ask for one during the event. Limit (1) token per caching team (aka caching name). Very limited supply, when we run out, there is no more.
Basket Raffle
Your WGA BOD members want to give back and are creating a selection of gift baskets that you have the chance to win! $10 gets you 10 tickets to place in the basket or baskets of your choice!
Do you have your own idea for a gift basket? Chili or geocaching themes are popular! Any attendee that donates a basket with a value of $25 or more will get one 10 ticket card of entries as a thank you for your contribution. Note you'll be adding a basket in your will attend log, or send a message to the WGA at wga-bod@wi-geocaching.com
