Fall is upon us once again, and with it comes cooler temperatures, changing colors, and the MGS Fall Meet & Greet. This year’s event will be held at Rocky Gap State Park in Western Maryland and will be hosted by Tom&Shelley.
Activities planned for this year’s event include a 50/50 drawing, door prizes and Ammo Can Toss with prizes for the winners of each division. There will also be several new caches placed in the park for the event including some water-based caches for which kayaks will also be provided. Special activities are planned for the kids as well. Check the cache page for all the details.
So mark your calendars and come out to the MGS Fall Meet & Greet, it promises to be a great time. The main dish for this event will be provided, but remember to bring a side dish or dessert, etc. Check the forum HERE for the food list and post what you will be bringing. Also any volunteers willing to help out at the event are encouraged to email Tom& Shelley at: info@wmdadventures.com

School’s out and that means more time for caching and attending
your local events. Set aside Sunday 2 August for the MGS Summer
Picnic. This year the picnic will occur at Rosaryville State Park.
Please stay tuned for more info regarding our largest event of the
year.
It’s looking like the MGS will have plenty of
members attending this year’s Geowoodstock
in Bell Buckle Tennessee.
Stop by here periodically to see what is going
on in Bell Buckle.
After a brief hiatus while all hands were working on the 2009 Cache Across Maryland event, the MGS Member Spotlight is back. We recently sent cub reporter Woodysix8 over to the Eastern Shore to catch up with Mother Wolf who was just coming off the heels of hosting a very successful CITO event at the Chesapeake Bay Environmental Center. Please click into the forums to read her interview.

For our second February Member Spotlight, we wanted to interview a member who has dedicated many hours of service to the MGS and has been instrumental in raising the positive awareness of geocaching and the Maryland Geocaching Society within the community. A well respected geocacher, and someone who is always willing to lend a hand or simply answer a question. If you have not already had the pleasure, then allow me to introduce, Mr. Dwight Wingert and his lovely wife BJ, better known in geocaching circles as BJ&Snurt101. Click into the forum to read more. All Hail Snurt!
