Geocache Description:

I suggest you take a camera along. Terrain is about a 2 but it's mostly flat and the trails are pretty well maintained.

Bah! I guess I'm not allowed to demand that people dress up anymore. Well, it's your loss if you decide not to play along. For some people, the difficulty may be a 5 and for others, it might be a 2. I'll let you decide.

Parking at: N43 19.349 W80 09.066

This appears to be a straight forward cache, but is it? I was inspired by an Ottawa cache and by an incident at an event while visiting up there recently. Caches with similar themes have sprung up:
in New Brunswick: Victor/Victoria (GCYWD8)
Pickering, Ontario: Trick or Treat
In Mississippi: How Do I Look
In Erie, PA: Victor/Victoria
In B.C.: B08: Fashion Sense – Not bloody likely!" GC1AQTF


In Germany! Manche mögen's heiß

A little dialog from the original movie to get you inspired:
"Poliakoff: The instruments are right but you're not...
Jerry: Wait a minute. What's wrong with us?
Poliakoff: You're the wrong shape. Goodbye.
Joe: The wrong shape. What are you looking for? Hunchbacks or something?
Poliakoff: It's not the backs that worry me.
Joe: What kind of a band is it anyway?
Poliakoff: You gotta be under 25.
Jerry: (insisting) We could pass for that.
Poliakoff: You gotta be blonde.
Jerry: We could dye our hair.
Poliakoff: And you gotta be girls.
Jerry: We could...
Joe: (cutting him off) No, we couldn't.

Desperate for a job, Jerry suggests that they take it, but Joe thinks he's crazy: "He's got an empty stomach and it's gone to his head." Jerry has a brilliant idea:

We could borrow some clothes from the girls in the chorus...We get a couple of second-hand wigs, a little padding here and there, we call ourselves Josephine and Geraldine."

To log this cache, you used to have to prove that you are willing to join the band. You were supposed to post a picture of the proof on the site. There are supplies in the cache, you just need a camera. Dressing your dog up does not count.
Note: You may bring your own attire if you feel that the supplied items may not be 'fitting'

Cache is 50m off the trail but well hidden.
