Very small event question

[+Scrumpy & Son]

Once a month I hold a non-profit making bushcraft and wilderness skills meeting in a woods near Milton Keynes, we stay there for 3 days, camping in the woods. We are surrounded by caches so I was thinking of offering an open kettle event to cachers in the area so anyone caching close by can pop in for a quick brew (free of course), is this doable within guidelines or not? (bring your own mug)!

I am guessing not, as the guidelines state:

 

 

While a music concert, a garage sale, an organized sporting event, a ham radio field day or a town’s fireworks display might be of interest to a large percentage of geocachers, such events are not suitable for submission as Event Caches because the organizers and the primary attendees are not geocachers.

 

 

Also would the attendees have to pay to attend?

No charge what-so-ever, if you are out caching and fancy a cuppa, you can drop in.

Im not so sure about this. The organizer is a Cacher and who is to say that there are Cachers amoung the attendees. There may be some there that might be "bitten by the bug" and would like to take it up. The best thing to do would be to ask a reviewer if it would be allowed and then act on thier advice.

Even if it's not allowed any chance you can email me some details about the weekend you run? Sounds like the sort of thing I'd like to come to.

 

Cheers, Rob.
