+ProjectFred325 Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 A couple of us have been throwing around the idea of a holiday celebration party for the family. This party is loosely scheduled for Dec 8, for a late afternoon evening event in the Gig Harbor / Tacoma area. just wanted to throw out a word to see if there is any interest an event during a traditionally very busy time of month. :P Quote Link to comment
+The Jester Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 The WSGA has a holiday party every year, generally between Christmas & New Years (a little less busy time). It's always well attended, so I guess you could say there is interest! Quote Link to comment
+Shop99er Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 We'd be Ho, Ho, Hoing to it. Would be nice to have a Holiday Caching Event on this side of the water! NanaBear threw a Christmas party a few years ago in Port Orchard and was very well attended. Quote Link to comment

+Prying Pandora Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Am I to assume from all this that Wander Lost and Shop99er are not it? Quote Link to comment

+Shop99er Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 Alright, now remind us how a White Elephant works. New or used? Nice or just a pice of stuff we want to get rid of. One gift per caching family or one gift per person? Wrapped or jammed in a bag? And what about Naomi? Quote Link to comment
+ProjectFred325 Posted October 24, 2007 Author Share Posted October 24, 2007 White elephant new or used, a regift or sumthin nice, geoswag or not, gag or thoughtful....really doesn't matter. wrapped or disquised in some manner. a gift gets a seat at the table and gets a gift at the end. rules: everyone gets a number. #1 choses a gift.. #2 then can take gift from #1 or new gift. ...#3 choses a gift from 1 or 2 or pile ect ect. HOWEVER if you have a gift taken by an other person, you then can chose a gift from the pile or from another person. The third person to hold the gift keeps it! example....cacher 1 takes a coffee cup, cacher 2 likes the cofee cup and takes it from 1, cacher 1 can NOT take the coffee cup back and grabs gift 2 an ornament. cacher 3 likes the ornament and takes it from cacher 1, cacher 1 can now get the coffee cup and cacher 2 finds anoter gift. the coffee cup is now out of play. TRUST ME I HAVE DONE THIS A BUNCH. Quote Link to comment

+snookie74 Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 (edited) Looking forward to it. Now I need to figure out how I am gonna get there, since -Hawk- wont be around. Edited October 26, 2007 by snookie74 Quote Link to comment
+-Hawk- Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 On a twisted multi faceted note, I unfortunately won't be able to make this event , due to having to work in the Kansas City area for a couple of weeks. I will though be able to see my family in Springfield,Mo. on a few occassions ,and if time allows and/or work sends me to the area, I may try to go to the SLAGA christmas party, being held on the same date as this . Have fun and if nothing else, maybe I will host my own event while down there . Quote Link to comment
