O Come, All Ye Cachers
Join us on Saturday, December 3rd from noon to 4:00 p.m. at the posted coordinates.
We can indulge in some food and beverage as we share our caching tales
with old and new friends.
At 1:30 p.m. we will have a gift swap for those that want to participate.
If you plan to participate in the gift swap don't forget to bring a wrapped gift.
The Wily Cacher Gift Swap
The gift swap is known by several names,
such as White Elephant, Yankee Swap and Chinese Exchange.
However, for this event, it will be known as The Wily Cacher Gift Swap.
The Wily Cacher Gift Swap encourages the "stealing" of gifts from other participants.
The Wily Cacher is a shrewd and calculating thief.
So who is this shrewd, calculating, and thieving Wily Cacher?
You are!
In fact, every player will get their chance at being The Wily Cacher.
Parental guidance is suggested if children participate,
because the stealing of gifts is mean and nasty.
Participation in The Wiley Cacher Gift Swap
If you would like to participate, bring a wrapped gift, having a minimum value of $10.00.
Upon arrival, each guest should give their wrapped and unmarked present to the host or hostess.
Each participant that brings a gift will receive a ticket with a number on it.
This will be your official player number.
The gifts will be placed in a location where every participant is allowed to easily inspect them.
The packages can be picked up, shook a bit and felt of by all the participants
to see if they can determine which gifts they may want to attempt to get.
Players may trade tickets among themselves.
However, once the game begins the ticket number you have is your number for the game.
No more trading!
The Wily Cacher Gift Swap Rules
No Teams… Each player plays for his or her self!
The game begins with the host or hostess drawing a ticket to determine Player #1.
Player #1 will select a gift and open it so that everyone can see it.
Each "round or turn" will begin with the host or hostess drawing a ticket to determine the player.
This player may select a wrapped gift or "steal" a gift from any player having a gift.
If your gift is stolen, you have the option of selecting a wrapped gift
or stealing any gift EXCEPT the one that was just taken from you.
The player can either select a wrapped gift or steal a gift from another player.
A "round or turn" ends when a wrapped gift is selected and opened.
There will be a maximum of 3 steals per round and GIFTS WILL NOT BE LOCKED.
Ending the Game
After the last gift is unwrapped Player #1 will have one more opportunity to exchange or "steal" a gift.
Player #1 can keep the gift currently held in his or her possession and the game is over.
Or, Player #1 can "draw" two tickets.
Player #1 must exchange his or her gift with one of the two players
that have the matching ticket numbers.
After the exchange, the game is over.
