You’re right. It didn’t say if it was one coin per person, or one per group/family.
Although I did read there was a prize for the most coins. If we stamp our booklet 5 times at each cache, will that count as 150 stamps? 😀
(JK, I’m sure they mean the coin is the prize and everyone who gets all 30 stamps will win one.)
We’ve already registered to be there. We’ll let you know how it is.
We went last year and had a good time, even in the rain. I’ll be marking the calendar for this year’s event.
(What kind of help do you need?)
Two of the 5 Xplorers would be interested. (Doesn’t look like a kids’ movie). Waukesha isn’t far, just let us know when and where.
Harrington Beach, right? I saw those earlier.
My husband goes there with his telescope to take advantage of the dark skies, but now we’ll have a reason to go during the day time with the family.
Thanks!
Do YOU live in West Allis too? Maybe it’s someone new looking for a friend and not sure how to meet people.
The friends feature was added with no real explanation. I think you can refuse friends. But once they’ve added you, can you change your mind? I guess they don’t really have any inside info on you, just a quick way to find you.
I probably wouldn’t accept a friend request from someone I didn’t know in person (or at least e-mail correspondence).

Dan Hilbert, according to the MPTV website.
I did identify the first cache they visited. Right after they find it, they took a shot of his GPSr and the coordinates, N43 08.245 W087 55.865. That puts them at USM Summer Camp Project (GCWT06).
The last cache, in the cemetary, is most likely WSQ Hallowed Be My Name (GCPNCA).
Anyone recognize names in those logs? Ironically, Team Vaughn visited both of those caches on the same day as the Outdoor Wisconsin people.
One thing to be aware of is that the Picnic Committee is looking to move the date of the picnic from the traditional August date to one in September. We are looking at either the 15th or the 22nd.
(Hopefully, the final decision will be made soon.)
Definitely a good time to turn on the Tracks feature on our GPSr. It would be fun to see which ways we went.
I’ve never gone through a corn maze, but my family and I talk about doing it every year. We would come if you hosted such an event!
(Although, I’m pretty sure I heard last year that Stacey Farms closed down or something. I’m sure there are other places around. You just need to find one that would go along with the geocaching part.)
To make another comparison, how many geocaches would you find if you just went into a random forest and looked around for them?
I suppose your birding numbers would be higher if you could punch coordinates into your GPSr and be sure that the bird you are looking for would be exactly there! 😉
The Picnic Committee consists of:

GrouseTales

I thought night caches were the ones you had to run out and get at night if you want the FTF. 😆
I think it still puts us in the same range. $251-300.
