NWOGEO members achieving their 1,000th find will receive the Golden Ammo Can Award, presented to them by the prior winner, at annual Holiday Shindig...

We are fast approaching the 2014 Holiday Shindig and here is the list of Golden Ammo Can recipients/givers:

leading us off will be: 1BABS (last receiver in 2013) will present to --???

...Please advise DATE when you hit your 1,000 mark - thanks

If you do NOT plan on attending the 12/7 shindig, and are on this list, PLEASE let me know if you're willing to make a can for the next person or if we should take you off the list.
If you get a can, you give a can. Perhaps you did not get yours yet from prior years, let us know, that still counts...

We will need to know NO LATER than 11/21/2014 to give folks time to make their cans. Thanks!

Hi, OhioSiouxFan managed to get to 1,000 on 10/27/14. http://coord.info/GC4C0MG

I plan to attend the shindig (on crutches no less!)!

Icefire016 and myself both got out 1,000 on 4/6/14 at our event GC50H8W

I hit 1000 finds on 9/28/2014 at GC1ACR3, and am planning to be at the shindig.

ooops did neglect to explain the ammocan awards protocol further...mea culpa...

when a cacher reaches 500 caches, he/she signs the NWOGEO banner at any event/meet n greet...
However, when a cacher attains 1000 cache finds, he/she is awarded a golden ammo can at the annual NWOGEO Holiday Shindig,
presented to them by the cacher who attained their goal just prior to them...

that prior cacher will present a personally decorated and spray-painted ammo can gold and stuffed with
swag personalized for that cachers' likes/hobbies/personality, etc...
it can be humorous as well as practical with caching swag.... this also means you will present to the cacher who attains their goal after you...

when you present your cacher with his/her can at the holiday shindig, you will regale us with stories of how
this cacher got their start in the sport, how often they cache/when/with who and any unique factoids about them that you have gleaned from getting to know them...
this award system promotes future endeavors as well as getting to know our fellow cachers a skosh better.

we will need to know the date you achieved your 1000 goal and the GC.com cache #...

you will be notified November 22 WHO you will be dedicating your can for, as one must be present to receive their award, this gives you time to contact
them and get some personal details in case you don't know them well enough yet...

please do not enter your name if you cannot be in attendance at the holiday shingdig dec 7 to receive your ammo can...

On April 20 Busdriverre became golden at Mocopulence......http://www.geocaching.com/seek/log.aspx ... fbbd7dc1a4

Just a reminder, folks! The cutoff to get in line for your Golden Ammo can is 11/21! If you think you will hit before the shindig, let us know that, too so we can be prepared!

Cardsflyinhigh got his 1000 at Mocopulance on 11/3/2013 as did CindyLou1983. They sent an email to NWOGEO with the info & they both plan on being at the shindig.
Also was contacted by AgilityQueen & Targemis. They are combining their account to TeamForPawz at the beginning of the year & would like to receive ONE ammo can combined under the name TeamForPawz.

My golden ammo can is coming along great! Just need to know who will be getting it.

I've got a preliminary list together, I want to talk to Suchanana tomorrow to be sure we're good to go. LAST CALL!!!!! I will have a list tomorrow night!!!!!

Hey there, hi there ho there! Here is the list for the 2014 Ammo Can Awards. If you are going to hit 1k before (or at) the Shindig, let us know no later than 12/1 so we can have a can ready for you. Anyone who hits after 12/1 will go on next year's list. So........with no further stalling.....ok maybe a little stalling.....yes I know I'm stalling!:
