Hello Nova Scotia Geocachers, once again we have been challenged by the fine provinces of New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland to a cache placement weekend. The idea is to hide as many caches as humanly possible from now until February the 2nd 2007. This event was a huge success last couple years and all provinces were rewarded with hundreds of new caches in a very short period of time. Last year Nova Scotia won the event hands down. This year P.E.I. has really made a huge impact with new placements on the Island so I would imagine they will be a force to be reckoned with. I think this year we must put up a much stronger fight and hide more caches, better caches and the most rewarding caches we can, always remembering QUALITY first. For this reason we are having a social prior to the Approval Weekend. The main intention of this social is to meet and greet, have a great meal, exchange stories and tell tales. After the event it will leave lots of time left in the day for all of us to go out and place a cache. So bring your stories and prepared cache containers and let’s get to know each other. Any caches intended for this challenge may be hid at any time from now the 2nd of February.

UPDATES TO FOLLOW. Place this cache on your watchlist to get updates as they develop.

Please remember to add a reviewer’s note indicating that they are for the challenge and are not to be released until 02/Feb/2007.
I encourage all cachers to hide their caches as early as possible to give the approvers sufficient time to get them prepared.

The following rules do apply to qualify:
1) All caches Winter friendly
2) No micros for this contest
3) You can hide your caches at any time but do not submit them until Jan. 15, 2007. Reviewers will not action any placements before the 15th.
4)This contest will be open to any cachers in the 4 provinces as long as they follow the above 3 rules.
5) Have Fun

You can start hiding them now. Submit them between Jan. 15th & Jan 31th. Make sure you state in the title of your cache Feb 2th - you should also state this in the reviewer's note.

For the title on your cache page.... "--Feb 2-- My cache name"

once reviewed, if it's OK it will be like this... "**Feb 2** My cache name"

if there is a problem, it will look like this... "??Feb 2?? My cache name"

This would give cachers lots of time to hide good quality caches and the approver’s lots of time to approve them. (Yes they are aware of the event and are prepared for the massive flood of caches).

Now to place lots of caches is one thing. More important point, is to place High Quality Caches. Please take your time to place long lasting quality caches in great locations for future enjoyment. Better to hide 1 great cache than 10 “just OK” caches.

ALL CACHERS ARE WELCOME SO LONG AS THE RULES ABOVE ARE FOLLOWED.
