*******EVENT UPDATE  04 Apr 06********

when you log a TB PLEASE PLEASE put it back where you grabbed it from!!! There are people grabbing bugs that are sitting on my puter desk at home and then putting them back at the cache...POST YOUR PICTURES OF THE EVENT

Welcome to the 3rd Annual Mid Island Geocachers Get together

This year it is called

The Mid Island Cache STAMPede

Due to the location size, at this time ( it may change in the near future) I will have to limit it to the first 40 teams that "sign up".

 If you would like to be there on April Fools day, Please email me through my profile.  PLEASE  include your email addy, real name and telephone # in the e-mail. Also.  a "Will Attend" on this page will be helpful too.

You might want to "watch this page" so that you have all the latest news on the event.

 

 

Last year we charged $10.00 per person or 20 per family...half of that money went to prizes and the other half went to offset the cost of running the event.  This year I would like to try something a little different.  I'll only charge 10 dollars per person/family and ask for a  "Donation" of  a prize worth 5 to 10 Dollars( if you have a business that can donate prizes then buy all means bring them too)...This way everyone will be guaranteed to go home with something.  If everyone that shows up is willing to bring a prize, I may be able to allow more then 40 teams to attend... It makes it hard for me to get the right amount of prizes if I don't know how many people are coming. Please let me know what you think.             Coast2coast2coast

These are some things you will need to bring...I'll update the list if I think of other things.

  • An unwrapped prize worth 5 to 10 Dollars ( some sort of Geo/Outdoors thingy)

  • a Clipboard (the dollar store has them)

  • A lunch or a potluck dish to share

  • I have settled on a time... If everyone could be there by 1030, we should be registered and ready to start at 1100.
  • I'm buying the stuff needed to make the event work... Please email me for my addy to send the loot.

 

UPDATE

As of today (Mar/15/06) there are 40 teams registered for the event.  I really hate to close the sign-ups but if I don't the event may get too big for what I have planned.  If there are any cancellations I will try and get more teams in
