By popular demand, we've created this forum to give new people a chance to introduce themselves and and ask beginner question.
Whether your new go Geocaching, or just new to our website; we'd love to meet you and help get you started.

Although I'm not near you, I just wanted to say hello! I too am one that picks up rocks when I go out, hee hee! My son has the "rock collecting" gene too.
I know there are cachers in your area! Sometimes it just takes folks a few days to get to the board. Welcome!

May 7th the Neenah Parks and Recreation Dept. is putting on a Geocaching workshop. I will be putting up an event page sometime in the near future for the workshop so that all temporary caches hidden can be logged.
Welcome! 
I made a typo! It's Saturday May 7th! Thanks go out to Tami of the EcoRangers for pointing out that my date was a Tuesday!

Might I suggest locking this thread and "stickying" it to the top? I'd rather see the new members start new threads than to have everything dumped into a single one. |

Sorry, this version of UBB doesnt have "stickies". Hopefully the new update will.
I agree, each new member can start a new thread. This isnt intended to be a catch all thread for everyone to post on.
