The party will take place Saturday, September 23rd at
Magruders,
located at 4995 Broadway in Depew, NY. The starting time
is 7:00 p.m. at the Bar/Grill Back Room.
Food, drinks, and the like are on you. Magruders has a wide
variety to choose from, including "great cheeseburgers".
You do not need to have participated in the TB race to attend
this event! All cachers are welcome. Please post a "will
attend" note if you plan on coming, and how many will be
joining you.
Expect permanent caches to be published nearby in the weeks
leading up to the event. Be sure to also check out the existing
caches nearby, especially the downright amazing ones in Como Park.
There are over one hundred caches within 5 miles.
Things to expect:
• A wide variety of food, fun, and cachers.
• The wacky antics of cachers you’ve only read about. Come and
meet them in person!
• There will be a Geocoin, Travel Bug, and Jeep TB basket.
Cachers will have to sign out what TB’s they take.

planned. We will now require $3 per person to cover rental
expenses. You'll get a raffle ticket after paying the charge.

planned.

many new cachers will join the second race.
