366 Days of Geocaching Geo-Achievement Geocoin

This is a keeper. I have no intention of moving it, but will share it at Geocaching Events with friends and fellow geocachers who can Discover and log it.

Earned on April 13, 2012 for completing a 366-day "streak" of finding at least one geocache every day for 366 consecutive days. The dates of the streak were April 14, 2011 through April 13, 2012, all inclusive. The length of the streak is significant, because 2012 is a Leap Year, meaning that the streak included at least one cache find on Leap Year Day, February 29. This also means that every single day of my Geocaching Calendar is now filled! 

By completing the streak with my wife and geocaching partner BooDogMama, we also qualified for and logged three very special Challenge caches. These Challenges were what inspired us to complete our 366-day streak. The Challenges did not require 366 consecutive days of caching, but they did require that cachers complete a full year of caching, and/or that all 366 days of the cacher's Geocaching Calendar be filled. The first Challenge was The "Day" Challenge, which required caching on a full year of holidays and memorable days. The two remaining challenges, Oogie Boogie Challenge and Days of the Year Challenge, required completing every one of the 366 squares in your Geocaching Calendar, by finding a cache on each of the days.

I obtained the geocoin from CoinsAndPins.com. The Geocoin is accompanied by a miniature replica in the form of a pin, which I wear  attached to my Trackable name badge when I attend Geocaching Events.

I had this one engraved to proudly display my Geocaching Name and the dates 4/14/11 - 4/13/12, the start and end dates of my 366-day streak. BooDogMama earned hers over the same dates for which I earned mine. We both have our own personally engraved copies of the coin, and enjoy sharing them with our caching friends.
