+BronxBombers Posted July 20, 2003 Share Posted July 20, 2003 Hi folks Came in 4th in the Magellan GPS Hunt in Fort Lauderdale... I am not sure if many people know about it or not, but you can earn yourself a free Magellan baseball hat by finding the cache and picking up a coupon. Plenty of coupons available still as of this post. Coords are : N 26° 4.266 W 80° 17.899 Read about the context at: https://www.magellangps.com/en/gpsAdventures/geocaching/cachedetail.asp?id=19 And do a search on www.sunsentinel.com with the word Geocaching, and an article will come up concerning this contest. Grand prize was a color GPS or Coleman camping gear: we missed it by about 10 minutes. This one is a fun hunt though! Good luck and have fun Quote Link to comment
+Ibiza Hippies Posted July 20, 2003 Share Posted July 20, 2003 This was so much fun! We found the treasure box this morning and there were still I think over a dozen coupons for the Magellan caps left in the box. I hope we can keep the cache going, it needs a log book and pen and I didn't think to bring these things with me, and the cache could use some more trade items. It's worth the trip just to find the container, it's just that cute! Quote Link to comment
nickie218 Posted July 31, 2003 Share Posted July 31, 2003 I searched on the Sun Sentinel site but nothing came up. I would have loved to join in the fun, too bad I missed this one. Quote Link to comment
lulumaxdog Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 I'm a reporter at the Miami Herald and I'm working on a story about geocaching for the Sunday paper. I'm looking for folks in South Florida or throughout the state to interview who are into geocaching. If you can chat with me about what you like about the sport and why you do it, please send me an email at bgarcia@herald.com or call me at 305-376-3715. Quote Link to comment
+WizfisherFamily Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 BronxBomber, I wsa ftf in the Magellan treasure hunt. I was logged in as fisninnut in Magellan but it was my wife and I though. There is an article in the Herald about geo-cashing in general and we were mentioned. I am new to cashing but plan to do this a lot. Here is a link to the article if I can figure it out. http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/6498035.htm Quote Link to comment
