+konopapw Posted July 18, 2002 Share Posted July 18, 2002 Some of you may know or have heard of the prolific geocacher from the midwest - BruceS. He is nearing his 1,000th geocaching finds. His goal is to reach that mark within 333 days since he started hunting caches, which computes to an average of about 3 caches found PER DAY! It is no wonder he is called an 'ATM' because he is truly a 'cache-machine'! BruceS has graciously allowed us to tag along with him on his 1,000th find. He has tentatively chosen July 28th (Sunday) as the day and Onondaga S.P. as the cache (this is SW of St. Louis on highway 44). These plans may change, so if you'd like to join us for the celebration, as well as meet other geocachers from the St. Louis area, keep up to date with the latest information at: http://www.GeoStL.com/SLAGAEventCalendar/index.html We will add more details to the event calendar as we get them Quote Link to comment

PioneerGal Posted July 18, 2002 Share Posted July 18, 2002 Thanks for posting the link, alchemist or I never would have seen that posting by BruceS. That cache technique is amazing. I tip my hat to the organization level and planning because I do not have that skill, patience or fortitude. BruceS, I wish you smooth hikes and a light pack. No one can make you feel inferior without your consent. E Roosevelt Quote Link to comment
+Markwell Posted July 18, 2002 Share Posted July 18, 2002 Man - I wish he were coming up to central Illinois. He's found most of the caches in the Chicago area - but that's a litter fer for the young-ins to go caching. Dang! I'll have to tag along on his 2K cache.

+Murrcat Posted July 19, 2002 Share Posted July 19, 2002 Congradulations BruceS on your upcoming 1000th find! I had the pleasure of meeting Bruce when he whizzed through Nashville and made a quick stop at the Middle Tennessee Geocachers Club meeting. He was nearly out of breath and only had a short time to hang out since he was on a quest of finding all the caches in the surrounding area. I was very honored to have him choose my cache (Hadley's Bend) to be the last one he found before leaving our town. Cache on Bruce! All of us here in Middle Tennessee are rooting for you to lead the way to those BIG numbers. Quote Link to comment

+Markwell Posted July 31, 2002 Share Posted July 31, 2002 What a great idea to have that golden cache to commemorate his #1000. Very nice indeed. I wish I could have been there for this one. Markwell Chicago Geocachers Quote Link to comment
