Guest Rikoshe Posted December 25, 2001 Share Posted December 25, 2001 Hello N.Nevada Cachers Is there any hope of a loose nit group forming in N. Nevada? Maybe an informal gathering once in a blue moon? Just wondering () No () We Don't need no Stinkin' Group! ------------------ If I can't find it, It' ain't there! Quote Link to comment
Guest bowman6 Posted January 1, 2002 Share Posted January 1, 2002 I think it would be great to meet some of the other cachers in the area. Quote Link to comment

Great So how do we spread the word? I can't work out how to put this page URL on the Cache site. If there's enough people that want to meet. Maybe we can put something together in the spring. like A BBQ at Washoe Lake? V Z ------------------ If I can't find it, It' ain't there! Quote Link to comment

V Z I have just started working on developing my own web site so I will play with putting this link on a website. I believe the same code works in cache pages. It does when creating caches and travel bugs. Once a day has been set we can set up an event cache to notify people of the time and place. I like the though of Washoe Lake. It has enough room to put on some sort of cache event. Do they have a group area or just plenty of room that we would converge on?

Guest bowman6 Posted January 26, 2002 Share Posted January 26, 2002 quote:Originally posted by Rikoshe:Sooo tell me how you got the link to work on your caches? V Z You can use HTML on the cache postings. The text I use is Check this out: If you are interest in meeting area GeoCachers You can see the first section shows what site will open target="_blank" causes it to open in a new window. The third section is the text that will be on the page. Hope this helps Mark Quote Link to comment
Guest Tomebug Posted January 26, 2002 Share Posted January 26, 2002 ould give me such cr** if I went all that way for a geocaching event. I may have to post a trip like that on the "you know you're addicted when" thread. Who knows, one of you Reno/Sparks geocachers may be someone I know! Pegge Quote Link to comment
Guest Tomebug Posted January 26, 2002 Share Posted January 26, 2002 I live in Southern CA, but used to live in Reno until about 2 1/2 years ago. I would love to come to a gathering if you have it on a Sunday!! Just give me a little advanced warning. Of course, I would tell my husband it was some sort of sick friend or relative I was visiting, ha. He would give me such cr** if I went all that way for a geocaching event.

Guest abeyoni Posted January 31, 2002 Share Posted January 31, 2002 Of course, we'll be there. Have discussed this with a few other N NV cachers. Lots of enthusiasm. We'll be out of town May 12-25. It'll be tough to find a day EVERY one of us can make. Pick a day now, tell as many cachers as possible and hopefully there will be a great turnout. We can always have another one in October as well. Can't wait to meet the names we keep seeing in log books. Please let us know what we can do to help get this plan going. CACHE ON! ABE & RISS (Reno) Quote Link to comment
Guest rogerrabt Posted January 31, 2002 Share Posted January 31, 2002 Someone should create an "event cache" for when and where to meet. I live in Vegas, but if I'm in the area at that time, I'd want to attend. Quote Link to comment

Guest Dale Miller Posted February 23, 2002 Share Posted February 23, 2002 heres a quick thought. How about a local cache in the reno-carson area that has directions in it to the BBQ. We'll know the date and time in advance, but if you wanna go, you gotta cache! E-mail me with thoughts! Mill8178@hotmail.com Quote Link to comment
Guest Rikoshe Posted February 24, 2002 Share Posted February 24, 2002 Yep that was the thought. a BYOM (bring your own meat) BBQ I was thinking of throwing a bag of charcoal in the BBQ and you can cook what cha brung. was thinking Washoe lake or Bowers mansion. quote:Originally posted by Dale Miller:heres a quick thought.

Guest Lightning1996YCJP Posted March 5, 2002 Share Posted March 5, 2002 Hi all in the Reno/N Nevada area! I am from Arizona (Prescott) and will be visiting up there (my fiance) soon (and have a traveller to place....) Here is AZ we have a pretty well organized but informal geocaching group. A couple of our computer wizards run an email list-serve that we use to communicate. One suggestion to get cachers together has worked very well here....make an "event cache" for a picnic, campout, whatever (spring might be more pleasant). Whoever organizes it makes a cache for the event and a cache page. Those attending log into the cache, enjoy the event, and then log online as a "find". It is a great way to meet other cachers! Hope to log a few of your caches mid-March! peace, Trisha aka "Lightning" Quote Link to comment
Guest Lightning1996YCJP Posted March 5, 2002 Share Posted March 5, 2002 I see that you folks are already trying to organize a get-together...sorry about that! My redundant comment/suggestion was 'cause I failed to read the most recent posts (I forgot they are on the bottom!) I do know that event caches for socializing are normally approved by Jeremy. Have fun!! Trisha aka Lightning Quote Link to comment

AK47 Posted March 21, 2002 Share Posted March 21, 2002 I just attended a meeting of geocachers in Wendover on May 16th. It was mostly people from Utah but one guy from Ohio dropped in. Was alot of fun. It was posted as an event cache. We had lunch, discussed geocaching and played bingo for a bucket of donated geocache prizes. Check out 'Lunch at a Peppery Fun Spot' GC397F . It would be great if Nevada Geocachers had a get together and swapped ideas. Quote Link to comment
