BillIL Posted December 6, 2003 Share Posted December 6, 2003 I am totally new to the game. I can see an obsession about to be born in me. I have just read about a breakfast held in Nov. Are they each month at a different location. I need just as much help as I can get. Bill Quote Link to comment
+Corp Of Discovery Posted December 6, 2003 Share Posted December 6, 2003 HI, and welcome. That was the first breakfast as far as I know. There may be one in the planning stages for further south next time. Have you checked out the ChiTown Cachers site yet? that may have more info, and there is a link on there I believe to a discussion forum. I just tried the website link and it appears to be down right now, try later. What part of Il. are you in? We live in Blue Island, bordering on the southside of Chicago. Quote Link to comment
BillIL Posted December 6, 2003 Author Share Posted December 6, 2003 Further south is good. I'm from Tinley Park, right down the road. Quote Link to comment
+Woodbutcher68 Posted December 6, 2003 Share Posted December 6, 2003 (edited) Nothing stopping you from having your own breakfast on the southside. I'm in Hammond and might stop by. It seems like most of the events are up north because the people up there set them up. I'm sure there are plenty of geocachers south of 95th St. in Indiana and Illinois who might be interested in having events down here. P.S. I'm not volunteering to set it up, but I might be able to help out! Edited December 6, 2003 by Woodbutcher68 Quote Link to comment
+Corp Of Discovery Posted December 7, 2003 Share Posted December 7, 2003 I think the hardest part would be finding a place to have it at. Anyone have any ideas? I am not a morning person and usually skip breakfast myself, but would make the sacrafice to get up and attend. Is there something wrong with the ChiTown cachers site? I keep getting errors trying to get to it. Quote Link to comment
+Cathunter Posted December 8, 2003 Share Posted December 8, 2003 (edited) Although it's not a breakfast, head south to what looks to be a great event in the making- New Year's Frigid Event Cache Edited December 8, 2003 by Cathunter Quote Link to comment
+Markwell Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 I had mentioned on the Yahoo group that I might be interested in hosting a December gathering. I haven't done any planning yet, but I was just talking with SWMBO about having one on Dec 27. I'll post it in the Yahoo group as well. Placed TBA. Watch for an event page. Quote Link to comment
+Woodbutcher68 Posted December 13, 2003 Share Posted December 13, 2003 December 27's a good day for me! Quote Link to comment

Markwell, is this event going to go forward? Quote Link to comment
+Markwell Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 Yep. Provided I can get a spot. I'm having one checked out today, and should know more by tomorrow. I'll post here either way. Got a good suggestion for a spot? Problem is they need to be a good kitchen that can take somewhere between 10 and 50 people (with an indeterminate number showing up). Tall order for a breakfasty place. Quote Link to comment
+Corp Of Discovery Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 What about a brunch (late breakfast/early lunch)? Quote Link to comment
+Markwell Posted December 19, 2003 Share Posted December 19, 2003 Here it is. 8:00 a.m. for breakfast and then caching. Sorry for the delay in getting this posted. Hope everyone can make it! Quote Link to comment
+Woodbutcher68 Posted December 23, 2003 Share Posted December 23, 2003 (edited) Which is it? 8:00 or 9:00 breakfast? You have 8:00 posted here, but show 9:00 in the posting. I posted it on the Indiana Geocaching board too! Just wanted to bump this thing up in case people didn't see it! Edited December 23, 2003 by Woodbutcher68 Quote Link to comment
+Markwell Posted December 24, 2003 Share Posted December 24, 2003 9:00 - the cache page is right. I had several e-mails from cachers indicating that 8:00 was too --vulgarity-- early for a breakfast. See everyone there! Please indicate on the cache page if you're planning on attending (and how many in your group) so I can let the owner know a close approximation. Quote Link to comment
+Cathunter Posted December 28, 2003 Share Posted December 28, 2003 (edited) I had a great time at Markwell's Dec Chicago Geo-Breakfast this morning. I hope there is as great a turnout next weekend for the New Year's Frigid Event Cache. It's been a great holiday season for caching in the Milwaukee/Chicago area. Hope to see more cachers on the trails! Edited December 28, 2003 by Cathunter Quote Link to comment
