Was it Robespierre or his sidekick Moonrock?

Love to cache? Solve a mystery? Compete for honors and recognition? Be Lucky and win prizes? Get out of your comfort zone, meet other cachers, improve your knowledge and skills, exchange tips and blarney?

Want to start the summer caching season with a BANG? Then this is the event for YOU! Experienced cacher? Newbie? Never cached before? Doesn't matter, this will be FUN for all!

Come and travel the highways and byways of Crawford County. The schedule of events will go something like this:

Cost: Adults $8. Children 8-12 $4. Children under 8 Free.
0900-1000 Check in. Sign up for road rally. Sign Event logbook.
1000 Road rally teams will be randomly selected. We will try to team you up with people you don't know or who you have never cached with. Teams will be given rally data sheets and rules explained :-)
1030 First half of the road rally begins. Teams will "start their engines" and head for their first assigned way-point.
1300-1400 Lunch. Cook out. Burgers and dogs, munchies.
1400 Reform NEW rally teams for the 2nd half. You will have the opportunity to cache with 3 or 4 different people.
1700 Road rally teams return. Cookies, dessert. Winners and prizes announced. TB / Geocoin / Signature Items table will be available at this time.

The road rally will take you around Crawford County to 21 way-points. Participants will compete as a team and as individuals. You will record codes and clues and sign the cache logs. You will solve the mystery: figure out who dun it and more. The solution can be used to figure out where the FINAL puzzle cache is. ... and it can be found following the conclusion of the event. You can also hunt the other 44 caches in Crawford county before or after the event.

Crawford County Caches


Want to drive? (or ride?) When you sign up tell us. We're looking for 10 drivers (sedans, SUVs, minivans ...etc anything that will easily carry 4-5 people.)

What to bring. A GPS receiver, writing instrument, a readable road map of Crawford County (optional). Lawn chairs, extra drinks, hat, insect spray, suntan lotion and money. A great ATTITUDE! Expect to have FUN and get out of your comfort zone... caching with people you don't know? Demonstrate your navigation and "search engine" skills. Learn from others, teach others, and work as a TEAM.

Sounds like fun but it's the same day as our annual Spring Picnic at Litzenberg near Findlay. Too bad so sad.
