Introduction To Geocaching Event on Nov. 1
Posted by webmaster on 30-October-2008 at 7:26AM
This event (GC1GD8C) is intended to introduce people to the sport of geocaching for the first time.
The staff of the Parks & Recreation Department of Germantown, TN, has been very supportive of geocaching within the city. They are providing the use of the large pavilion in one of the larger city parks (i.e., Cameron Brown Park) so that people interested in geocaching can learn about the sport.
The event starts promptly at 10am on Saturday, Nov. 1st and lasts until noon (or maybe a little longer). Tiger130 and Prontopup will lead the class. Other experienced cachers who attend the event will be asked to help the "newbies" as we teach the basics of geocaching.
Introductory events in the past they have always been fun. Everyone is invited to come help.

Celebrating Cgeek's 3,000!

Cgeek found her 3,000th cache on May 29, 2008! That's a fantastic achievement, especially when you consider that she found her first cache on April 4, 2006. 3000 caches found in two years is awesome! This milestone deserves special recognition and that is exactly what we are going to give!
Join us on Saturday, August 16th, to celebrate Cgeek finding 3K caches. We will meet at Johnson Road Park in Germantown, TN, in the large picnic pavilion. Everyone should arrive at 11am when the temperatures will still be relatively "cool" outside (after all, it is summer in the south!). Bring your own lunch or late-morning snack. GOWT will provide bottles of cool water for anyone who wants to quench his/her thirst. After some "meet and greet" time together, we will give out awards for those cachers who have reached 100 and 500 cache milestones in the past six months. Then we will have a special presentation for Cgeek.
Everyone will be asked to write their favorite, happiest thought about Cgeek when they sign the log book. For example: "Whenever I see a 35mm film container I think of Cgeek - fondly usually." Or how about: "Thanks to Cgeek it took me 15 hours to drive from Memphis to Knoxville as I hunted all of those LTL caches at every exit on I-40!" Use your imagination. We'll present the signed log book to Cgeek at the end of this event as a wonderful remembrance of this great time together!
There will be excellent door prizes and a good time will be had by all. We'll see you on August 16th!
Look for the pavilion with the GOWT banner on it!
