Lonely, I’m Mr. Lonely, I Get No Signatures on My Log . . .

March 12, 2016 the WGA held its annual Lonely Cache Game (LCG) Event at Gordon Bubolz Nature Preserve in Appleton, WI. First of all, a huge thanks goes out to ham fam, pixiestix13, and marc_54140 for hosting this event. They couldn’t have asked for better weather with temperatures approaching 60 degrees and a venue with trails and even some caches ready and waiting to be found nearby. What a great day!
Speaking of great days, Team Northwoods walked away with the grand prize for 1st Place. He scored a grand total of 1,733 total points for 73 reports in 2015. Congratulations Team Northwoods on your accomplishment! Other notable winners were Catchfly, Dreamcatchr, ScribbleScribe, suzisumac, scott543, MTCLMBR, Vaderloop, luckyastrodiver, and beccaday to round out the top ten for the year.
Participating in the WGA LCG is easy and fun to do. Visit the website (www.wi-geocaching.com) and go to the top of the page and click on “WGA EXCLUSIVE GAMES!”, then “WGA Lonely Cache Game”, and click on one of the links to see a map of the current lonely caches or to download the Bookmark List. You now have what you need to get out and find a lonely cache and put your signature on a log. Best part is, you even get points for logging a DNF. How cool is that?
To start racking up points in the game, return to the “WGA EXCLUSIVE GAMES!” section and “Submit your report”. It’s that easy! You can even see your progress compared to others on the Scoreboard. Can you beat Team Northwoods in 2016 and get your name on top of the list? We went from not even participating in this “game within the game” to 3rd Place after submitting 4 reports. Make sure you read the rules to understand how scoring is done. You’ll be surprised by how quickly your points can add up.
Good luck in 2016 to all who choose to participate. We hope to see your name on the Scoreboard soon!
