"The joy of finally finding a well-hidden container. The surprise and delight at encountering a clever gadget cache. The twinkle in a cacher’s eye when signing a logbook. It’s all magic."
😀🎉 THIS IS AN OFFICIAL MAKER MAGIC EVENT HIGHLIGHTING CREATIVE GEOCACHES. GEOCACHERS WHO ATTEND THE EVENT AND LOG  "ATTENDED" ON THE EVENT PAGE WILL RECEIVE THE OFFICIAL MAKER MAGIC 2026 SOUVENIR! 😄🎉
WE ARE BUILDING CREATIVE AND INTERACTIVE GEOCACHES!
I will have many build kits available, but please log your "will attend" as soon as possible to help with planning.
What to expect:
The string/nails/numbers geocache is a fun idea that I started with a "Finding Nemo" themed cache (GCACEF9). The cache consists of 6 sea creatures next to nails and a fish attached to a long string. Using directions given in the cache description, the string is wrapped around the nails to create numbers for the code to a combination lock. The idea has since been replicated by geocachers around the country. A Cat in the Hat version at a library, an airplane flying through the clouds, there are so many possibilities. What will your theme be?
I will have all the supplies you will need on hand, but if you have a special idea for a theme, please bring anything you would like to use.
TOOLS! Please check out the "what to bring" list and bring supplies to use for your build. This will help the build process go much faster. Please feel free to message me through the geocaching app with any questions.Â
