In looking at what remains for us to find at High Cliff, I see five puzzle caches. Will these still be in place? Or should I save my solving energy for other things? Thanks!
S|S has said these will remain. There is a chance he may have new ones to go along with these. I’ve heard they are placed…
New Traditional caches will number at least 15

Yay can’t wait, hope it’s not cold or rainy.
Wabbit Hole we got. There are others, however. Wabbit Hole was really pretty awesome, both the puzzle and the location.
I’m surprised there is not a section on the WGA forums to discuss the campout like there is for the WBCB.
Anyways, those of you getting a hotel this weekend, where are you staying? I may attend the campout myself, but I’ll be staying at a hotel in Appleton somewhere.
There still is time Todd. Feel free to start a topic.
Some has been talked about in the forums in the thread stealers and I am always up for the members to run with their own topics.
Whattya want to talk about? We’ve been talking about the Silent Auction and the WGA TeamUp Token game- but just a little bit on that here. Shhhh its a big secret.

It sounds like grills are provided, is that right, or should we figuring on bringing our own or cooking over the fire?

Yes grills are provided. If for some reason vandals run off with them, Becca will hold a lighter under your hotdog to cook it for you.

•GCD511 WGA Geo-Campout 2003
•GC1PBQM 2009 WGA Geo-CampoutWe think it will be the perfect location and should be our largest Geo-Campout ever.
Event will take place on Saturday, May 16th from 8 a.m. until 10 p.m.
List your Will Attends now to join in the fun and camaraderie! While daytrippers and Hotel/Motel campers are always welcome, to get the full Geo-Campout experience you need to sleep outdoors in the park. The WGA has reserved two group campsites for tent campers that are available on a first-come, first-serve basis (60 campers max). Camping is not required. Campsite revervations are now limited and 1st Come 1st Served!
WGA TeamUp Token Game Goal: Bring people together into teams that you normally wouldn’t get to meet or cache with. Teams: Form teams of cachers with a 25 point maximum allowed for each team. Register at the Pavilion
Cachers with:
10,000 + finds are 20 points
5000-9,999 finds are 15 points
1000-4,999 finds are 10 points
500-999 finds are 5 points
0-499 finds is 1 pointNo TeamUp Team can equal more than 25 points. Each WGA Token has an unknown value. 1 token per cache/container can be claimed per team. There are enough for 40 teams. More than 40 teams playing…cache fast
Each caching team can take a WGA Token from each cache or container they find that has them 8 of the 15 new caches published in the park have tokens in them
There are 3 additional token containers placed in the park near well- known landmarks within the park. These will offer parts of coordinates for a Final Container that will hold Bonus Team Tokens- everyone likes a Treasure Chest!
