Come help us find some left over Easter Eggs.
This event is a combination between a Road-Rally, a Photo-Shoot, and an Easter Egg Hunt.

Here are the event Rules and Guidelines. Paper copies will be furnished on the event day.

Teams:
Create your own Team. Each team must have at least two people, but can be as big as you want. However, teams can't divide up, and need to stay together on the hunt as a team. Please post a note on the page if you plan on playing, so we can have an idea how many teams we will have.

Equipment:
- Normal geocaching equipment (including GPS)
- A digital camera
- A mode of transport

Prizes:
Yes, there will be prizes awarded, but they will be acquired in the True Cacher tradition - "exchange". Each team member is asked to bring a prize to donate to the event in exchange for another prize. The top team will get first picks, second team next picks, and so on. Please bring something that you would like to receive as a prize.

The Hunt:
1. Teams can register between 8:00 am and 8:30 am.
2. At 8:30 each team will be given a packet including an "Easter Token", a copy of the rules, a page listing the coordinates and hints for each location, and the "Bonus" tasks (described later.)
3. Each team then has 3 hours to find as many of the "Easter Egg" locations as possible. Each location will be worth "finders" points.
4. Once you identify a location, you need to take a picture with at least 1 member of your team (that's why you have to have at least 2 people) holding the "Easter token" in front of the location, so that the team member, the token, and the location are all visible in the picture.
5. Each location will also have a hidden "FTF Easter Egg" worth extra points. The first team to each location will have the best chance to find that Egg. (If you find that egg, it must also be in your Location picture, and you need to bring it back with you.)
6. There will be other "Bonus" tasks that can be completed for additional points. (Details on these will be included in your registration packet.)
7. Starting at 11:30, all team photos will be reviewed and a winning team announced. (In case of a tie, the first team to return will be the winner.)

Points:
Each "Easter Egg" location photo will be worth 10 points.
Each "FTF Easter Egg" is worth 5 points.
Each "Bonus" task photo will be worth anywhere between 1 and 5 points.

Even if you do not plan on participating in the Easter Egg Hunt for the event, please come to encourage the competitors at the beginning or congratulate the winners at the end. The cache is hosted at a park, so there are playgrounds nearby for the kiddos and there are plenty of caches in this part of Orem.

Location Note: the "Easter Egg" locations will be unique enough that Utah County Geocachers should have no more advantage then anyone else.

Thanks to JeeperDad for the idea and page text for this event.

Please post a note on the page if you plan on playing, so we can have an idea how many teams we will have.
