Laurel MD 2018 GIFF event CG7VVGX 2-4 P.M. Saturday 10 Nov

Post by portlywalker »

So a great Geocaching International Film Festival is coming. The film is tremendous.
Thanks to the Friends of the Laurel Library who agreed to join us hosting this event at the Laurel Library 507 7th street, Laurel, MD 20707.
2 P.M.ish MDCrab is going to lead newcomers in learning about Geocaching (he will be supplied with 10 patches to hand out to newcomers) GC7JP5B will be our tutorial cache and also is a good beeline for those who like to navigate that way.

2:30ish p.m. we'll start raffling the more than 25 items we have for raffling.

2:55 PM we will want to do a group picture thing.

3:00 PM we will show the 1hr movie.
4:00P.M. is our Geocachers CITO to cleanup the auditorium room.
THROUGHOUT There will be the logbook
Deep Concern is bringing some water and the Library does have soda pop vending machines
Zorrobarnes is organizing the Trackables discovering and trading.
NEED Volunteers to run the popcorn machine throughout. I picked up one from the Laurel Parks and Recreation people and will order supplies. However, I have never run one before.
would like an MC to do the raffling
The ingredients are coming together for a great time.
Please feel free to contact me, Phill the Portlywalker
Thank you,

I am getting nervous about this popcorn popping part. NOONE has volunteered to work on this. AMAZON PRIME appears to be failing. Promised supply delivery of WED has not happened yet.
