Northern-Lights Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 (edited) Hi everyone. Myself and Hard Oiler from Sarnia Canada, have combined forces and are planning a first of a kind International Social Event to be held on May 22nd in Port Huron Michigan. (See Cache http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?ID=119903 ) Anyway, the plan is to hold the event annually and alternate it between Canada and Port Huron. EVERYONE is invited. I'd like to get people for other countries as well. We will be having a pre-registration at the cache page if your interested, but will be keeping the cost way down as many will have to travel. There will be prizes, games and loads of food and fun. If you have ideas I can use or ponder, shoot me a message and let me know. Thanks..... By the way, maybe I can convince some of the PTB to attend? (Hint, Hint) Edited March 1, 2004 by Northern-Lights Quote Link to comment
+Halden Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 Looks interesting. Let me check the calendar and run it by the better half. Quote Link to comment
+boulist44 Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 I might help if local cachers were prepared to host visitors from overseas. Quote Link to comment
Northern-Lights Posted March 1, 2004 Author Share Posted March 1, 2004 I might help if local cachers were prepared to host visitors from overseas. Let me see what I can do.....that's something I hadn't thought of. How many would you have? Quote Link to comment
+boulist44 Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 Should I decide, it would be a maximum of one Quote Link to comment
Northern-Lights Posted March 1, 2004 Author Share Posted March 1, 2004 Ok...while the pre-registration isn't set up yet....some of the details are comming together. The pavilion has been rented, the menu is starting to come together (we'll be cooking hotdogs at the pavilion), and there is loads of parking. Those of you that have put together things like this may have some ideas I could use. Please, if you can think of anything that would be fun to do....or something you think should be done....please say it. I've never done anything like this before, and while we have some great people helping......your ideas are very welcome!!! Thanks Quote Link to comment
Northern-Lights Posted March 6, 2004 Author Share Posted March 6, 2004 Yup, this seems to be growing by the day..... Any cachers, especially those from Canada, Ohio, Illinois, and Indiana may want to slip on over for this....we'll have fun for sure!!! Quote Link to comment

The action can also be followed at: www.mi-geocaching.org , then go to the forums. Quote Link to comment
