Just a note the business Someburros will not be charging anyone for
attending.. However it is the attenedees choice to order and pay for food
and drink. This has always been so at any of a Team Evil Fish Event.

Subject: [Az-Geocaching] Er? Halloween RadioActive Event
I received an email from a friend saying they were glad to see that Team
Evil Fish helped Tamo get a listing for Halloween RadioActive.
I then asked what they were referring to and they said ..
IamHungryFish: Geolizing Event #17 by Team Evil Fish GC16FHA is the listed
cache for people to get a 'smiley' for attending Halloween RadioActive.
I had to inform them that the event by evil fish is over 27 miles away as a
crow flies and begins 2 hours after the HRA event.
Now I am seeing all sorts of logs on the cache within a business called
Someburros' is getting all sorts of notes that seem to be taking an attack
at the Halloween RadioActive event. Am I missing some joke by Phoenix
cachers down here in the southern parts? Or do people really think the HRA
gatherings are that much of a waste of time?
I am asking because we (my family) are putting in a lot of time again this
year to ensure everyone has fun and we are trying to 'out do' what we have
done in the past. Is this really something that geocachers are upset about?
Maybe I am just confused, but logs such as:
'Oh great! A real event. I will be there with WhirledCache.'
and
' Wow, you sure this isn't a typo? You know, it's funny, I didn't see a $20
admission charge here. I don't even need to 'pre-register'. Or would that be
'FREE-register'? Well, I happen to be FREE that day, and since you are
considerate enough to make this a FREE event for the Geocaching Community,
I'll feel FREE to show up!
Looking forward to a REAL Halloween Event!
Thanks, Evil(FREE)Fish!'
seem to be pretty direct attacks on Tamo for all the work he and his family
put into this.
Is this what geocaching is now about? I keep hearing about how friendly and
supportive the geocaching community is but then we see things like this and
have to wonder what happened that we are not hearing about. Would any of the
Phoenix cachers care to let others know what is happening?
Thank you
