+Mr.Explorer3 Posted August 16, 2007 Posted August 16, 2007 Hockey season is a short time away and I thought we should put our own team together. I am now recruiting members for TEAM GEOCACHE. Here are the details. Each team member will be able to put their own NAME on the back of the jersey (geocoin) and pick their own NUMBER. The jerseys (geocoins) will come in three colors WHITE home jerseys, BLUE away jerseys, and GREEN third jerseys. Be sure you are committed to your purchase as securing a number will limit others in their choice of numbers. Only one of each number will be available so first come first served. This will be determined by the e-mail time stamp I receive when I am contacted. Please pick a first and second choice number. To be on the team each member will be required to purchase a set of 20 jerseys (geocoins). Each member will be able to get a combination of jerseys (geocoins) in home, away, and third jersey colors as they wish. I suggest something like 8 home, 8 away, and 4 third jerseys, but it is up to you. The jersey (geocoin) metals will be gold=third, silver=away, and black nickel=home. The name and number will be in the GC ORANGE color. In order to make this happen we will need at least 25 members on the team. Each member’s fees will be approximately $145.00 which will include 20 personalized jerseys (geocoins), shipping, personalization, and fees. Payment will need to be in advance of the order. Be sure you are committed to your purchase as securing a number will limit others in their choice of numbers. The jerseys (geocoins) will be trackable on geocaching.com with a unique icon. The plan is to have these finished by October 1st, just in time for the regular hockey season. All members will need to be submitted by September 7th so we can get the geocoins back by the date we want. Once the final roster is set I will purchase 1 additional jersey (geocoin) of every player. This complete additional home team set will be put up for auction to raise money for my local fire departments fill the boot drive, IAFF Local 187. All profits raised will go to the MDA. Coin Specifications Metal Gold=third jersey, Silver=away jersey, Black Nickel=home jersey Die's 2d Size 1.75" longest side Thickness 3 mm Home Jersey Away Jersey Third Jersey Proposed Icon I will update the team number list as often as I can so you will know what numbers are available. Please e-mail with any questions. Samples will be here in approximately 12 days. If you want to be on the team e-mail your username, real name, jersey number wanted, quantity of each jersey(minimum 20 total), address, paypal address, and please make sure it is spelled correctly. I will go by the spelling I receive. I am checking on the number of characters we will be limited to on the name. Team Members 1 = Mr.Explorer3 Quote

YemonYime Posted August 16, 2007 Posted August 16, 2007 Every good hockey team needs a grizzled veteran that can't skate as fast but looks downright intimidating in a playoff beard. I may have retired after I blew out my ACL (at the rink, not kidding), but I sure as H-E-double-hockey-sticks can park my phat arse in front of the net and play hell with the goalie. Sign me up. I'm #21. Yime Quote

+Geo_Moose Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 (edited) I know we shouldnt be hockey fans here in the south, but I have had 4th row season tickets to the Hurricanes since they moved to Raleigh. Still a die hard football guy, but hockey is a close second, so I figured I would join the team by grabbing my goalie Cam Ward's #30. Very cool idea, I look forward to getting the coins.

We've had season tickets since the 2nd year in Greensboro while they waited for the real arena in Raleigh to be built. Bounced around between sections over the years, in 102 this year. We'll have to swap coins on opening night. Quote
