+Tennessee Jed Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 Hello Everyone, Cacheapalooza 5 is getting close and I am hoping to raise donations for the event raffle. This years event currently has over 170 caches placed with several more to come. So it is a expensive event for the organizers and the raffle would help defray their costs. I along with 300+ other attendees are hoping to continue this annual event for many years to come, so any help would be much appreciated! If you would like to help please email me and I will send you my address. I will post all donations in this thread if you wish. And if you have the chance, please come to the event whatever year you can. Thank you for any help! Quote Link to comment

The_Warrior Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 Because several mystery coiners are attending this event, we would like to turn this thread into a Geocoin Forum Mystery Coin Raffle. For the first 10 donations The Cache Reaper will choose a person to give his coin to. For the next 10 donations The Bell Witch will choose one person to get her bronze coin. For the next 10 donations Captain Hook will give one coin, and if my coins are done in time I will choose 1 entry from the next 10 donations. So the more coins donated, the better chances you have.

+Tennessee Jed Posted December 14, 2010 Author Share Posted December 14, 2010 Thanks for all who who are donating so far: EyeD10T mlrs1996 scificollector RedShoesGirl Red Otter and another mystery coin giver. And a special thanks to the The Cache Reaper, The Bell Witch, Captain Hook and anther mystery coiner who have tried to use this thread as a geocoin forum raffle for their coins! Each coin equals one shot at the first mystery coin and maybe the others. Only one person can win one coin though. I will post the winner(s) in this thread shortly after Christmas.

+Tennessee Jed Posted January 25, 2011 Author Share Posted January 25, 2011 (edited) Here are some pictures. There were around 380 signatures on the log book. Two cachers with the most finds (Alamogul and TeamSnook) were there, along with some older coiners (Lehigh Mafia, TurtleToes, Dreamcacher V and DiverVan). There were cachers from as far away as California, Michigan, Germany and Finland. It was a great event! Thanks everyone for your donations and put it on your calendar for next year!
