Re: 10/10/10 event
So, that clock is downtown GR? That is a good place I would think. How do you think parking would be on that morning there? Can you get a set of coordinates?

Re: 10/10/10 event
Actually the clock is in front of the downtown fire station, right next to the park where they make the applebutter. Also, walk 50yards across the canal bridge and you are at the river. A great place actually. The closest cache is my archived Bearclaws tribute cache and archived first ever cache "On Golden Pond". I can get coordinates if needed.
We could meet in the park, walk 25ft to the clock. Lots of parking. Two blocks to Momma Theresa breakfast or, if open, Pizanello's pizza buffet.

APPLE BUTTER FEST weekend. Not going to be possible I don't think. Maybe Waterville?

We were thinking Waterville too.
Doesn't that have a stand alone clock in the center of town?

Could set it up in Pray Park, right at the intersection of 24 and 64.
Take a pic of the tower right behind the group at the appropriate time.

Re: 10/10/10 event
There is a small plaza beneath the clock that is large enough to gather 50 or so, but I don't know if there is a clock on that side. The side shown in the picture only has a sidewalk and busy RT. 24. So the person taking the pic needs to be quick or expendable.

Re: 10/10/10 event
Here is the parking lot and a view of the 3rd clock from the lot. Looks like a good spot

Re: 10/10/10 event
Looks like enough room and there are at least 3 clock faces, so maybe there is one on the parking lot side,
That is Applebutter Fest day, so that road would be busy. We could always take the pic at 10:10 PM Maybe Cheech could borrow us a night vision camera from the 180th. or we could stand like statues for 15 min and use a real slow shutter speed.

Re: 10/10/10 event
I would assume there is one on the 4th side, but google street level photo from that direction was preconstruction.

Re: 10/10/10 event
If T-Hunter was about to submit for Waterville I say go for it anyways. Waterville for the western cachers. There's no clock at the "other" place.
