+BooBooBee Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 OK, so I thought we'd put together a little geocache event here to get locals together. We've done it before and had a couple dozen people show up. Well, GC18B3Y is shaping up to be a pretty darn big event for a "little local get together" with some 50 people signed up to show. This is an after-work, Friday gathering at a pizza place...to begin anyhow. We're placing new caches that day to up the ante. We'll be giving away cache containers loaded with swag. Who knows what else might happen? So, what makes a great geocaching event, IYHO? Quote Link to comment

+StarBrand Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Simple answer: The cachers who attend. Agreed. I once held and event at which nobody else showed up. Not much fun. Quote Link to comment
+WRITE SHOP ROBERT Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 All the things you mentioned add a little to the fun but are not really needed. The best part is just the people. Quote Link to comment
+Ambrosia Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Agreed. Exactly what I was going to say. Quote Link to comment

+Mopar Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Simple answer: The cachers who attend. Yup, All in favor say "I" "I" I! Sounds like you already have the most important part covered. When people think back to past events, nobody remembers the food, or the prizes. They remember the friends. Quote Link to comment
+Ltljon Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 So, what makes a great geocaching event, IYHO? Beer. Quote Link to comment
+BooBooBee Posted January 21, 2008 Author Share Posted January 21, 2008 Thanks! Our last event had some giveaways, but we spent most of the time visiting with each other. Didn't know if a larger group would require more organized fun. Pizza, beer (or soda if we must), cachers and plenty of time to visit. Quote Link to comment
