I just got my order in of Bears. I noticed I have more then the 20 that should be in the bag. Being that the bags seem to have been sealed I'm going to wager there is a chance someone is going to be short.
If you get your order and find you are short, drop me a line and we can arrange to balance it out.
I'm purposely avoiding saying how many.
That aside, I now have some for Trade as well as I still have a few Crabs as well as my personal.

Bumping the topic of the Give-Back program:
Pathtags has a program where you can have a special back to your pathtag. They are offering a special back for the MGS.
It costs $0.10 additional per tag, and this additional money goes directly to the MGS accounts. So a bag of 100 tags will result in a $10 donation to the MGS and you will be able to show your support when trading your tags.

Did the BRAND NEW CAM pathtags sell out ALREADY? When I go there it says that tag is not available.

It is my understanding that they have sold out. Don't think anyone was expecting them to go so fast.

OMG, we have awesome members who do so much to show their support of the MGS.
We try so hard to plan for potential pathtag sales while keeping the vendor happy, but we sell all the tags faster than they could ever expect.
Other organizations have listed tags with them, but they have problems selling all of their tags. This is not the problem in Maryland.
For our next order we will push for a higher initial tag count to sell. Maybe the vendor will feel more comfortable with the next set.

Got my order of CAM 2014 tags today. So if anyone wants to trade. Particularly if anyone has one of last year since I didn't even know about them fully at the time of CAM, and it was my 1st CAM, I never got one.

If anyone wants them, I have some leftover 2013 Summer MGS pathtags (Crab). If you are going to CAM, I can trade with you then..

I got confirmation today from the folks at Geocoin Club that they have placed a refill order on the 2014 CAM tag and a small batch of the MGS Hiker tags.
According to their message the tags should arrive 04/16/2014 and 04/30/2014
