Slow Poke

This trackable is part of a race that started in Saskatoon Saskatchewan on June 9, 2013 and ends on July 20, 2014 at the Living Skies 2014 Mega Event. This race is based on the points I earn so please keep me moving, crossing borders and attending events. You can check out the chart below for other ways to help these points add up too.

Starting the Race:

All trackables will be taken to Gold Country 2013 (WestCan3) Mega Event held in Merritt BC on 29 June 2013. This means that all trackables will be starting at the same time from the same place giving each one a fair and equal start. Starting at this event will also help spread the word of LivingSkies 2014, our geocaching mega event in Rosthern on 19 July 2014.

The end of the race will not be determined by a finish line, but rather a finish date of July 19, 2014, 12:00 noon local time. At this time, all points will be tallied and double checked and a winner will be announced at an event on 20 July 2014.

1. Dipping/visiting is not allowed. However, we cannot stop this from happening. Therefore, dipping gets 0 points. If a dip occurs, any points earned from the dip will not be tallied, including pictures, crossing borders, etc. In some cases, this has resulted in serious point losses. All trackables will have an attached tag that states the No Dipping/Visiting rule.
2. Contestants in the challenge are forbidden from handling any racing trackable. This is done to prevent people from cheating by intentionally moving other entries to hinder their travels. All trackables will have an attached mission card stating that they are in the Start Your Engines 2013 race.
3. Contestants are encouraged to follow their trackable movements. Each month, the race standings will be updated with the scores for all entries. If you feel that your entry’s score is incorrect or you feel that we have miscalculated, please contact Navyguider for assistance along with details.
4. There is an inherent risk in releasing any trackable that it may go missing or be stalled. For this reason you are encouraged to keep on top of your trackables movements to prevent this from happening. If your trackable does go missing, your points accumulated to that point will be used in the final standings.
5. All contestants must start in this event
6. When a TB is placed in a cache or event, it must be retrieved by a different cacher.
7. It may cross the same border as many times as it wants and earn points.
8. Only one photo per log will be counted.
