WHAT: Cache Ca$h Dash Bash 2k10 GC1KV21

WHEN: Saturday, January 9th, 2010 9:00 AM to ???

WHERE: First National Bank of Paris Community Center, 25 East Main Street, Paris AR 72855
N 35° 17.578 W 093° 43.737

The listed coordinates will get you to the parking lot of the First National Bank of Paris Community Center. This event will take place even in the event of rain, sleet, snow, ice, sunshine, or etc. There will be a meal, contests, temporary caches, surprises and hopefully a bunch of cache talk and caching. There is no cost to attend the event of course but prize donations are welcomed. Please e-mail paris1time @ paris1time@yahoo.com if you would like to donate a prize.

The meal will be “pot luck” @ 11:30 AM. Please bring a dish and 2-liter of your favorite soda. We will have ice, coffee and tea. We will also furnish some hot dogs for the kids. Please call paris1time @ (479.518.0812) or e-mail paris1time@yahoo.com with what you plan on bringing.

Cache Ca$h Dash & Cache Ca$h Auction
The premier event will be the Cache Ca$h Dash and the Cache Ca$h Auction.

There will be five temporary caches placed the day of the event that represent some of the types of caches hidden in geocaching. Those placed on the day of the event will be temporary caches to represent a traditional, multi-stage, letterbox, puzzle/mystery, and virtual cache.

Those who choose to participate in the Cache Ca$h Dash will receive a temporary cache sheet the day of the event that will have the details on how to find the caches. Once all of the caches have been found the participant will receive a sealed envelope containing Cache Ca$h (specially marked play money). Participants will then be able to use their Cache Ca$h to bid on items up for auction in the Cache Ca$h Auction. The twist: you will not be able to see the item up for bid because it will be placed inside a container and the auction will end without notice.

Participants will also be able to do what ever they want to do with their Cache Ca$h by using it, giving it away, or pooling with others to bid on items.

Name That Cacher

There will be a poster at the event that will feature photos of individual cachers, geocaching teams, and/or other people related to geocaching in some way. Attendees will be given and entry form to write down the real and/or geocaching name(s) of those pictured in the photos. Those that able to successfully identify all of the photos will be entered into a prize drawing.

Geo-Bingo

Attendees will be given a "Geo-Bingo" form and attempt to get signatures on their form from those cachers that match the category listed. Those who successfully compete their form and turn it in will be entered in a prize drawing.

Photo Contest

We love to take photos while out caching and we know many of do also. We thought this would be a great time (especially if the weather does not cooperate) to show those photos off. The contest rules are simple:

(1) The submitting cacher must have taken the photo
(2) The photo must have been taken while geocaching
(3) Entries will be limited to 3 photos per cacher (Note: This is a new rule this year)

Bring your favorite photo(s) to be displayed (It’s up to you how you present the photo (frame, matted, etc.)). Those attending will be allowed to vote for their favorite. If you plan on bringing a photo to submit for the contest please place a label on the back of the photo/frame with your name, Cache name, and waypoint for the photo.

Cacher Chaos

Cachers will receive an envelope containing a list of words and also several copies of one of the words on the list. The goal is for the cacher to keep one of their copies of the word in their envelope and then trade their extra copies with other cachers for the other words on the list in their envelope. The first three cachers to get copies of all of the words on their list and turn them in will win a prize.

If you had the chance to see this game played at the previous events in Paris you know why we call it "Chaos".

Travel Bugs and Geocoins

Bring your travel bugs and geocoins to show off.


Please post a “Will Attend” on the event listing on Geocaching.com if you plan on coming and tell us how many in your party will be coming so we can plan accordingly. If you plan on attending e-mail paris1time @ paris1time@yahoo.com with the number in your group that plan on attending and what you plan on bringing for the meal.

Please add this listing to your "Watchlist" and watch for updates as the event approaches.
