Current Goal

The goal of this Boomerang TB WAS to reach France, host country of the 2004 World Boomerang Championships and then return, like a boomerang, to Peoria, Illinois, USA.

It has accomplished this epic adventure thanks to you, awesome geocachers.

About This Item

Boomerang Bug1

This small boomerang arrived in France, briefly and amazingly, in the same month as the World Boomerang Championships thereby accomplishing its primary goal. Charleville-Mézières, FRANCE hosted the World Boomerang Championships July 12-21, 2004.

It has since, 6 years later, arrived in Peoria, IL and been caught by the thrower.

Many happy returns to all who helped this travel bug on it's flight. Catch the magic! Throw boomerangs!

'When I want something to happen, I wave my Boomerang Toomerang Soomerang and -- it happens.'

Unfortunately that is only in the Neighborhood of Make-Believe since I tried waving this one around at the cache and the snow didn't go away, darn it.
It must not be of the magical variety? (for those who have no idea what I am talking about -- you must not have small kids at your house - LOL)

I added a geo-nickel to the chain for good luck in it's journey.......
Bug Find #196 -- I have to say, this bug is very cool, very unique. I put it in the top 10% of the bugs I have found.
