About This Item

The Great Train Race

This Geocoin was chosen to participate in our event “Geocoins from around the World and Travel Bug Adventures” GC2HH6R. At this event we introduced " The Travel Bug Express Train" to the attendees and they were given a geocoin to enter in "The Great Train Race". We also asked for volunteers to place these coins in their home towns. The volunteers were also given a geocoin for the race.
 
Notes for geocachers:

  • Place the Geocoin in fairly active caches
  • Try not to hold the Geocoin more than 2 weeks
  • Keep this fun for all and thanks for helping

Have a great day

Conductor of the "Travel Bug Express"

GeoPig hosted her Annual New Years Eve Extravaganza on the 30th this year, because she knew she was taking the TBs out-of-town on New Years Eve. There was live entertainment, good food, and plenty of fun for all of the TBs who attended - Take Me Home to Combe, Dox A Grape Cache Geocoin # 2, Blue Grass Tom's Copper Cache Coin, Hecko the Traveling Geiko Gecko, GC&P Club November 2010 - Caching the Slopes Geocoin, Signal Geocoin - Nov 06, KIREASAUR, John's (John Mac56) Travel Express Geocoin.

New Years Eve was spent in Port Huron since geopig #1 had been working there all week. Everyone went to the casino across the river in Sarnia, Canada but unfortunately none of the TBs were over 21 so they couldn’t get in. GeoPig offered to take the TBs caching around the area while geopig 1&2 went into the casino to make a donation. After a couple hours of fun on the slots, geopigs broke even and decided to take all of the TBs to dinner at the Olive Garden. Everyone returned to the hotel to find a big party at the pool. Of course GeoPig and the TBs joined in the fun. They came up to the room to welcome in the new year and watch the ball drop on TV then fell asleep before we could get any pictures.
