[Az-Geocaching] Magellan Geocaching Game

[listserv@azgeocaching.com]

For those that are interested, Magellan is putting on a contest similar to 
Project APE a few years ago. Hopefully, they'll put one in AZ if they see 
enough people from here sign up on the website. I posted a bit of the press 
release.
