Silent Auction Info:
If you have something that is geocaching related that you would like to donate for the auction, send an email to Lobotomy (lobotomy21@gmail.com). Send a description of the item, a picture of the item and a starting bid.
Items will be gathered and held onto at Champoeg. We will set up tables in the RV building with pictures, descriptions and bid sheets starting Friday morning and ending Saturday afternoon at the potluck. All bids will be rounded up to whole dollars.
ALL PROCEDES WILL GO TOWARD FUTURE CHAMPOEG EVENTS!!!!


Meet-n-Greet
Hosted by the Washington Champoeg Adventurers. Come hang out, enjoy some food, and get to know your fellow cachers.


Gong Show Info:
Last year, we had a fantastic turn out. Cachers came up with skits, songs, jokes, dogs and beer bottles filled with Lemons.
This year we will have new judges, new acts, new stage help and the same crusty host with the same smelly suits.
The Show will happen on Thursday night, time and place to be announced. We are hoping to have the amphitheater stage, but if need be, we will have the RV building again...if so, we will bring fans........

So, if you are like me (Lobotomy) and have no shame...or if you do have shame, but do not mind getting up and acting the fool in front of a lot of friendly and good natured geocachers, please, send me a note through the champoeg.com forums or an email through geocaching.com. The only way this works is to have cachers participating. There will be prizes...including the fantastic and trackable Geo-Oploy game....and whatever other stuff Buck finds between Mexico and Champoeg park.


Camp Decorating Contest
This year's theme: Mixed-up Holidays
Pick a random holiday, make one up, or mix a few together, then decorate your campsite accordingly.
The best decorated site will win some sort of nifty prize!


Yurtville
Yurtville is the Champoeg living room. The centerpiece is Sassquatch's yurt. Armando's bar, The Spirits of Champoeg, will be setup there, tended by Yumitori & Leonata. If you have a drink, please tip :) There will also be a keg, and a keg donation box.
While there is a lot of alcohol being served in Yurtville, please do not let this discourage you if you are a non-drinker! Yurtville has a great party atmosphere, and is the best place to get to know your fellow cachers 24/7.


This schedule could change in the future, so keep an eye on this page.
