We haven't heard anything official from HQ yet, but there has been a souvenir for every International Geocaching Day since its inception in 2011, so I fully expect there will be one for this year too.

+Max and 99 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 (edited) You earn the souvenirs. They are free digital rewards if you complete the requirement. Easy peasy! Just like the Hidden Creatures souvenirs you earned this past month (I checked your profile). The Intl Geocaching Day souvenir only requires ONE log, though!

The coin is so pretty, though. I was hoping I could buy a real one. : ) But...I was hoping for a real Kraken, too. Guess I will have to settle for virtual. : ) Quote Link to comment
+Max and 99 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 You can buy a coin if you want. I just saw them on Shop Geocaching. Quote Link to comment

International Geocaching Day 2018 Happy International Geocaching Day! This special day is celebrated by geocachers worldwide every third Saturday of August. You earned this souvenir by finding a cache or attending an event on August 18, 2018! Did you submit your log via the app or via the website? And what time of day did you submit it? I'm wondering if this is a time zone problem, especially if submitting via the app - which seems to set the log timestamp even further back than if submitting via the website. My suggestion would be to copy your log text, delete your log, then re-log a Found for that cache via the website (where you can set the 'date logged' to 8/18). That should get you your souvenir.

+hzoi Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I got mine when I logged a mega on Saturday. (And, oddly, two different souvenirs for the same mega event - same icon, different description.) Quote Link to comment
