Hey folks,
This Thursday at 5PM we will be having a geocaching event to introduce
new students to the club. The basic idea is to have two teams that
have both walking and biking participants. We'll give several people
in each group the coordinates to 4 caches around campus; each of these
caches will contain part of the coordinates for the 5th cache. The
first team to find the 5th cache and return to Yon Hall wins.
I thought Florida Pool would be open so I listed that as the meeting
point, but since it's not, we'll just have to station a bunch of
people at each entry point and funnel them to Yon Hall. Please show
up and take part (and wear your t-shirt if you have one); I'm guessing
the race will take about half an hour and will be followed by the
meeting. The idea with this is not to provide a serious geocaching
competition, but just to give everyone an excuse to goof off and talk
to new people about what we do. If you can think of a prize to give
the winning team, let me know.
Also, I need people to help set up the race on Wednesday. Let's just
plan to meet at Yon Hall at 5 - bring a bike (and a gps if you have
one). I bought some tupperware containers; if you have any random,
worthless "treasures" you want to stick in them, bring those along.
Oh yeah, and I survived my trip to Panama (though not without
contracting one or more weird tropical diseases) - you can check out
the pictures/log here:
