+kbootb Posted November 25, 2004 Share Posted November 25, 2004 In addition to the standard 'you have found this cache' leaflet which I have now got from the resource pager, I remember seeing somewhere that somone had developed a leaflet about geocaching that emphasised the good points e.g. CITO, and that we followed rules when placing caches. Guess what, I can't find the link now I want it. Can you help? Quote Link to comment

+M3ZPY Posted November 25, 2004 Share Posted November 25, 2004 S'ok, this may be usefull as a hot topic - unless another UK member has done a topic on this previously. But at least I have made myself usefull for a change My new job as Custmomer Sevice Advisor must be wearing onto this forum (and I aint even got to using the phone yet!!!) Quote Link to comment
+one4zorro Posted November 25, 2004 Share Posted November 25, 2004 Thanks for the heads up on this. Just one more question, because its designed for US paper sizes I can't get it centred properly - any ideas how to do this for A4, In Acrobat Reader? Then I can print some of to include in letters that I am sending off to get permission for new caches Martin Quote Link to comment
+Brenin Tegeingl Posted November 25, 2004 Share Posted November 25, 2004 Martin have a look Here at the "Introduction to Geocaching" document, this has been used by quite a few when asking for permission. I personally have sent copy's to CADW and CCW (both organisations part of the Welsh Assembly) and had good feedback about it. Dave Quote Link to comment

It depends on your printer. With HP laser printers (and some others) click the properties button, select A4 paper, set the paper to "Landscape", click the "scale to fit " box, select "Print on both sides" (all of thesde on different tabs, by the way). DON'T select "Autorotate and scale" unless you want the inside to be upside down relative to the outside (when folded). Quote Link to comment
+The Hokesters Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 Can it be added to the resources page? It might be worth some clever individual reformatting it and wording it for the UK market too. Lactorum maybe? Quote Link to comment
+CYBret Posted November 27, 2004 Share Posted November 27, 2004 I happened to notice the discussion over here. Thanks for checking out the "Let's Go Geocaching!" brochure! I'm currently working with some international cachers on French and Spanish versions of the brochure. I'd be glad to work on a UK version as well. If anyone is interested in doing the editing that would make the brochure more "UK-Friendly" please feel free to email me. Thanks again! Bret Quote Link to comment

+brandwood Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 I found the leaflets useful but does anyone know if similar leaflets exist to explain travel bugs. I am considering organising a travel bug 'race' for our primary local school - with each year having their own bug which they can track around the world (?) - with a n element of competetion of course!
