Time: 6:00 p.m.

Place: Hacienda del Nimrod/Casa rootie

Purpose: Camping Caching Fun

Can't make it to Munich's Oktoberfest (September 19-October 4,2009)? No problem! Come do it "Island style".

Come kick-off "Kachetoberfest" at Hacienda del Nimrod/Casa Rootie's with an on-site weekend camp out. Gather 'round Friday night's bonfire, scoff down grilled Oktoberfest and 'kraut, dazzle fellow campers with your best caching stories (lies), and celebrate the end of summer with your geo-buddies.

You're invited to pitch your tent in our yard, with access to in-house facilities for the weekend. You should bring your own towels and beverages, and there will be a $5 registration fee to help cover the cost of the BBQ.

Geocaching: The sport where YOU are the search engine. Woodstock PEI: The event where YOU are the entertainment! Prizes will be awarded for the best "track log art" creation, and our very own "Geo-Karaoke Star" -- yes, there will be singing, or something close to it.

In honor of rootie's sister's homecoming (BC geocacher, Kodiack), we will be releasing a new 13-cache series this weekend titled, "Shunpiking", with a special cache release titled, "When the Chick (Kodiack) Comes Home to Roost".

Games, prizes, camping, food, embarrassing karaoke, and geo-camraderie -- what more does anyone need? Throw in the chance for a dozen FTFs and the opportunity to hear rootie sing (and dance??) and it just doesn't get any better than this!!
