+Bjorn74 Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 In July, there's an event that everyone worldwide is invited to. We were hoping that the news would travel up to Canada through word of mouth. It doesn't look like that worked. Keystone mentioned that I should post something in here. Midwest GeoBash July 15-17, 2005 It's an easy going event. We have over a hundred cachers watching the event, so if you're into the big events, this should meet or exceed your expectations. Quote Link to comment
+Dagg Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 Looks like fun! But they won't let me into your country Quote Link to comment

+Amazon Annie Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 2005 Midwest GeoBash - Flamingo Invasion !?!?!? Yikes! How can you tempt me like that? Don't know you my obsession ? (well, one of them). <sigh> Now to find somebody to drag along. If I can drive close to 2,000 km to Florida for GW3 then a short 410 km to your event shouldn't be too bad. Quote Link to comment
+capjap Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 Geez Annie..you have to ask? I'm in! Quote Link to comment
+Bjorn74 Posted June 3, 2005 Author Share Posted June 3, 2005 While makng your plans keep in mind that we are having a Site Theme contest as well as a Silly Hat contest. The sites are going quick in the south camp. There are hotel links on the cache page. There will be a crowd about the same size as at GWIII. See you there. Quote Link to comment
Keystone Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 Amazon Annie, it would be great to see my Ontario Geocaching friends once again. We may even be able to share our campsite, which is right next to a flamingo-themed campsite. Let me know if interested. Quote Link to comment
+Shawn&Holly Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 hhhhmmmmmmm, will have to look into the budget for this one, could be a plan. Quote Link to comment
+Amazon Annie Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 Okay, it looks like we've got the Broad Squad on invasion mode. Expect 3 crazy Canuck women sometime on Friday. Not sure about the accomodations yet. Thanks for the invite, it will be good to see you again Keystone, after GW3 last week. I hope Shawn and Holly can join us! Quote Link to comment
+Bjorn74 Posted June 7, 2005 Author Share Posted June 7, 2005 We've started preparing for the invasion. Are you staying with Keystone? Quote Link to comment
+Tidalflame Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 (edited) Seriously? No. this is a wink isnt it? Yeah, it's a wink, but I do know a few people in the US who have been banned from flying for (as far as I'm aware) no reason. One of the administrators of HackThisSite says that he's not able to fly. I assume it has something to do with hacking. Edited June 7, 2005 by Tidalflame Quote Link to comment
+Amazon Annie Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 We've started preparing for the invasion. Are you staying with Keystone? We have a 3 room tent and so we will be booking a tent site on the south side. I'll let you know the details soon. Don't want to use up all of Keystone's electricity with the flamingo neon lights and other stuff we are bringing. Quote Link to comment
+Bjorn74 Posted June 7, 2005 Author Share Posted June 7, 2005 I thought it might have more to do with the site # and that he wanted to do a theme camp. Well, it looks like Area 2 will have wireless Internet, so there's an added bonus. Quote Link to comment
+Bjorn74 Posted July 19, 2005 Author Share Posted July 19, 2005 Thanks to everyone who crossed the border. Also, congrats on the site award. I think it was seeing your site that made us give the honorable mentions. Next year? Quote Link to comment
+Amazon Annie Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Thanks for a wonderful and very informative time Bjorn. I've got lots of notes and some new ideas with which to talk to our parks officials. I'm also contemplating writing an article for our local newsletter on tips for submitting a cache faster. It was good to meet you and all the other cachers I only know by name through the forums. You bet we're coming next year! Especially if you keep the theme - I went 'Mingo shopping on the way home! A whole Fairground to play on and $7 camping to boot? We'll be bringing reinforcements too so watch out. Oh and thanks to our neighbouring campers who ended up being decorated with all the Canadian flags the next morning. Quote Link to comment
+Dagg Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 neighbouring campers who ended up being decorated with all the Canadian flags the next morning. Got pics? Quote Link to comment
