MFG is leaving New York City and wants to travel the world finding coins, tokens, scouting memorabelia. His ultimate destination is the "Lil' Churchboys Cache" in Waupaca Wisconsin (GCPBEH)
(visit link)
George would appreciate it if you could add any of these collectibles to his chain. A side trip to Czechoslovakia would be a plus.
This Travel bug is named for my dear friend George Cuhaj. George has been a great friend for 30 years and this is how I am introducing him to geocaching. George lived most of his life in cosmopolitan NYC (just a few blocks from the Socrates Cache where this bug was launched) and then one day, pulled up roots and went to live in Iola Wisconsin. The destination cache is in the town near where he used to live. It is close enough to George that he can retrieve it when it gets there. George is active in Scouting and in the world of collectibles--especially coins, tokens and medals. He also owns three Checker cars, is a bowler and a curler, once worked as Chief Usher at St Patricks Cathedral in NY and wrote the Boy Scout merit badge for 'Coin Collecting'. He's been to the Scout Jamboree many times as well as Philmont and to Europe on a number of occassions. He is an active Boy Scout leader in Wisconsin. Alas, George may be moving soon, so let's see if we can get this bug to him before he does. Side trips to New Mexico or Czechoslovakia would be welcomed as well.
The bug hitchhiker is a coin that George created for the 2005 National Scout Jamboree.

George was not in the L&C Waubonsie State Park cache. Seems to have gone missing.

What an apropos visit for George. I think he's been there (in the flesh) but it doesn't hurt for his likeness to visit again. Thank-you for giving George a tour of Texas!

Baden-Powell was certainly a King of the Hill, and Ft. Hood is nearby with lots of scouts.
