Welcome, Texoma Geocachers!
Texas-Jacksons and TexasGreg are organizing a “Texoma Meet &
Greet” for regional geocachers. If you are reading this event
posting, you’re INVITED! With all the caching activity in North
Central Texas and Southern Oklahoma, it’s time we put some faces
with all those geocaching names. This is our first attempt at
organizing an event so we will try to keep the first meet
simple.
Here’s the FINALIZED AGENDA:
When: Saturday, September 23, 2006
Where: Covered Pavilion in Lucy Park located in Wichita Falls,
TX
Time: 10:00am to 3:30pm (allows for travel time in the a.m.; local
caching in the p.m.)
Cost: $0 - Shoestring budget. No Ferrari raffle – just a few small
prizes for Event winners
Hey! It’s a Meet & Greet, not a Geowoodstock IV!
EVENT ACTIVITIES
10:00am Registration open for name tags, event
information, and mini-cache location sheets
10:00am to 2:00pm Event caching
(Eveyone is on their own for lunch)
2:00pm Close Game Piece Check-in
2:00pm to 3:00pm Group event: Closest to the Waypoint
3:00pm Award recognition

Caching Events: Caching Bingo and Caching Five Card Stud Poker. A
number of mini-caches will be hidden for participants to find and
recover game pieces that will be used in the Bingo and Five Card
Stud Poker Events. The more caches you find, the more game pieces
you have.
A third event of being closest to a predefined waypoint will also
be held.
Prizes: Geocaching merchandise and unregistered trackable
geocoins
Please log your interest in participating to this cache page. This

Our goal is to keep it simple while allowing area Geocachers to
meet one another.
Mark Saturday, September 23 on your Calendar and spend the day with
your area geocachers!
