Cash Only. They will not serve Coca Cola. They proudly proclaim this on their menu board.
Try the Cheeseburger prepared with butter, pickles, & onions and the chocolate malt. Then take a nap 🙂
Smoking IS allowed here and there is no, “non-smoking”. Only like 10 tables (maybe).

Please come out and help if you can. We would love to get more people out than last year and make a huge dent in the 3 parks we are targeting. These are some of the neatest parks in Appleton. I did not grow up in Appleton, but I LOVED visiting Pierce park throughout my childhood.
Why not volunteer to do something good just because it’s good. It’s so easy to get caught up in all the bustle and hustle of our daily lives and not take the time every once and awhile to help out our neighbors and volunteer to do something. There’s enough stress and bad feelings and bad publicity (as s|s mentioned) in all of our lives.
You won’t regret coming and I guarantee that if you’ve helped out at a CITO event in the past you agree with that statement.
Hope to see you there!

Congrats zoesbro!
I think the best kind of challenge cache is one that allows the cacher do design their own adventure so to speak but “provokes” them to have fun by helping them set a goal (but allows them the freedom to decide how to achieve it). The well rounded cacher, again, is a good example of that.
I agree 100%. Those choosing your own adventure books is a neat metaphor for this. Much more interesting when you can choose from a menu rather than having only 1 choice. (another metaphor) My only caveat to anyone looking into designing a new challenge cache is that you think very closely about your requirements and maybe test them out with a few other cachers before publishing. Just a thought that might save you the hours and hours of pulling your hair out later. (I have some experience with that…)
Word a challenge too loosely and “anything goes”. The more restrictions you place the more confused the general public becomes. There’s a balance in the middle for these. That’s why the delorme and the well-rounded challenges are good ones. There’s no question what ya gotta go hunt. Pick em and go get em’.
Be careful about challenges that are based on moving parts: difficulty, terrains, cache names, container sizes, attributes — these can all be changed later by an owner. Caches can also be archived. New caches can be published. All moving parts to consider.
And yes there can be too much of everything (even good things) at some point. Eating too much chocolate cake.. I don’t think we are certainly “there” yet with challenge caches (or other ALR caches for that matter) in Wisconsin. I do think the physical locations of them should be spread around the state though.
I for one will not be publishing anymore challenge caches. I am busy enough managing one at a time thanks.
Find all unarchived WGA COTM nominated caches…
Congrats!!!! That’s a lot of finds 🙂

I’ll bet Marc and -cheeto- are already working on an Alphabetic Delorme State Challenge Cache! Congrats on a 7th! 😀
Nope, owning 1 challenge is enough for me!
Congrats Team Honeybunnies on the latest Delorme! Maybe someday I’ll get to travel that much…
Mine is now in the hands of Ecorangers. We’ll see where it goes!
Congrats!!
My wife and I refuse to do that with the cache we placed on the other side of the bridge along the trail. It will stay until we can access it and we will continue to post notes on the page as appropriate. If the contruction ends up impacting this one we will archive but not until we can verify that.
I do agree with S|S that in certain circumstances it would be handy to set a cache to out of order but as to whether that would ever be made possible I am not holding my breath. I think the notes on the cache page to make it look like you are keeping track of it is the best option.
there’s no spot for a 50 cent piece in their register…
Congrats! I saw the new caches published. Though I am not in the area, it looks like a really cool cache series 8) 😀 8)
