Join us for an old fashioned western hoedown. If you ever wanted to play a character in the Wild West then this event is for you!

Welcome to the Wild West geocaching event.
Travel back in time to 1852 and join us for an old fashioned hoedown at Upper Stevens Creek Park in Cupertino at the Sycamore Group Picnic site. Grab your cowboy hat, pull on your jeans, clamp on your spurs, and hoist your feedbag! Join in an impromptu line dance or two.

The Soggy Log Saloon featuring Tied House Amber Ale awaits you.

WILD WEST COSTUMES ENCOURAGED!

FOOD
Bring something to share. Can't think of what to bring? Here are some ideas although standard fare is always enjoyed :-)

Pie!
7 Layer Dip
Spicy Pecan Nibbles
Crab Stuffed Mushrooms
Potato and pasta salads
Brighten up a chicken or turkey salad by adding big chunks of peaches or apricots
Greens go great with papaya or mango strips; top with an herb vinaigrette or fruit flavoured yogurt dressing.
Tuck favourite sandwich fillings into Italian focaccia bread; layer with strips of cheese and tomato slices, sprinkle with fresh herbs and drizzle with balsamic vinegar and olive oil.

Some more food ideas can be found here

BBQ
Bring something for you to BBQ (we will provide coals)

RAFFLE
Bring something to donate and receive two raffle tickets. Everyone gets one ticket just for attending.
See the dread LeChuck distribute the loot. You will be in for a real treat!

PARK FEE
It costs $6 to enter the park. The only place you can buy a pass is here: N 37° 18.410 W 122° 04.431 Buy your ticket at the self help kiosk and find a cache (GCMGTJ) while you are there. THEN and only then drive to the picnic area.
