Since this has come up, Im planning an event cache in the spring, either
March 4th or 11th. I will likely need volunteers for this. The event cache
will be based on this event in Albuquerque:

My only dilemna is where to have the final part of the event, where prizes
are handed out. Opinions and suggestions on any part of this are welcome.

I would like to chime in and mention a few words about Event caches....



The first Event cache that I attended was a great Pot Luck in a park, many
people showed most brought food some ate what was there...One caching group
graciously donated a lot of food...





Time Passed and I planned my first event a breakfast cache that did take
some planning and convincing the restaurant manager that our group would be
welcomed group. I did this for 2 reasons I knew very few cachers and had a
minor income the buffet was very affordable for me and everyone else.



the results several caching groups and teams went out together after eating
finding caches together...



due to several reasons some of which were change of residences and business
closing the breakfast caches turned into Pizza Caches at restaurants with a
large area which allowed several people to sit next to each other and low
cost very affordable Good Food. currently at a location that Geocachers are
welcome at any time and any number..and yes I am looking for a banquet room
at a Chinese Restaurant for a low price....



The next True Park Cache was the Halloween cache a very nice event well
planned and well run activities, but imho weird lighting :) but for a park
cache very nice and the second was just as good...



There have been several other events in-between



Casa Grande

Prescott

Tucson

Yuma

Bull Head City



some were above expectations some not, but All of which did 2 things brought
Cachers together and increased the networking of local and far away
cachers...which is the true success of any event cache even in the rain....

Given this would be my first event cache, I'd be happy with a pizza type
event... Maybe with an 'event in the park' once it cools off, like in
December! Or, what about meeting up on Mt. Lemmon, where it's cooler?

A lot of talk about a Tucson event cache has come up in the past few months,
but with the heat the way it is, I'm not sure an 'event in the park' would
be all that enjoyable until around September or so.... unless we want to
follow Phoenix's lead and have a pizza type event.
