It's all aboüt the
Nines!
The FlyinV's fascination with unusual dates
continues! They're on Cloud Nine in New Mexico now, but the
tradition continues in South Jersey. And if it's not in South
Jersey, can it be the original? Nein! Nur das Süd
Jersey Event ist das Original! So meet us at 9 at the
09-09-09 @ 09:09:09 Event!
This year the 09-09-09 Event will be held in
conjunction with similar events all over the world. Check the
bookmarks on this page to see other locations celebrating the
nines. There are over 50 events this year celebrating the
nines!
A new unactivated, limited production "NJ 999
coin" will be given away in a drawing at this event, courtesy of
JoenSue. Anyone who is physically there and who has logged a "will
attend" is eligible!
Can't make it at 9am because of work or
school? Then stop by
09-09-09 @ 09:09:09
PM (GC1W66C) at 9 pm and see who shows up!
The Ninth Year, Ninth Month, Ninth Day, Ninth
Hour, Ninth Minute, and Ninth Second mission began in 2005 when the
FlyinV's decided to hold an event called
05-05-05 @ 05:05:05 to determine which cachers were so crazed
and hungry for geocaching that they would get together that early
in the morning. Almost 50 fellow cachers attended! The following
year,
06-06-06 @ 06:06:06 was just as much fun with over 60 people
attending that event. In 2007, about 150 cachers attended
07-07-07 @ 07:07:07. And in 2008, on a summer Friday,
almost 88 folks attended the
08-08-08 @ 08:08:08 … therefore, the “All About the Numbers”
event series lives on!
We are inviting all of you to join us once again
for a geocacher greet, meet, and eat! And, if it's all about the
Nines this year, then it has to take place at 09:09:09 in the
morning!! This year, the event is on a Wednesday, so put in
your vacation request early, or, cough cough, start playing up the
"too sick to work" routine on Tuesday before heading home!
Doctor's notes will be available for a small fee :)
It's a casual event, so there's no reason to
dress to the nines for this one! Sorry, K9's not permitted in
the restaurant.
This is a table service restaurant offering the
whole nine yards - order from the menu, but don't forget to pay as
you leave, and remember to tip your server!
We have given the event Nine Stars (4.5 for
difficulty and 4.5 for terrain) for those who will have difficulty
passing up this event, and for those that will have difficulty
getting off from work or school (for those unfortunate few who
might have to go to work, try these on your boss and join
everyone for an after-event cache-a-thon)!
So join the fun at Number 9, Number 9, Number 9,
... Sounds like a broken record.
___________________________________________________________
Just like the past years, we are on the lookout
for creative cache containers and creative hide ideas. Last year we
had numerous inventive and imaginative containers at our event and
we are eager to see what this year will bring! In that vein, a
contest ensues ...
Most Creative Geocache Container
Contest
Put your noggin to work and get creative.
Bring your coolest geocache container. The only rule is this
has to be a useable geocache container, and we should all expect to
see it placed soon after the event! The winner will be
decided by YOUR VOTES shortly after 09:09:09. Prizes will be
awarded for First, Second, and Third place finishers…you just have
to play to win!
To claim this event cache, you will need to make
your way to the above coordinates and sign the logbook by 09:00.
This will ensure that we can all be together to celebrate
09:09:09. We hope you will stay for breakfast!
“Bug Exchanges” are always welcome. If you
are bringing travel bugs to trade, please have their Bug Page
printed and included, so their goal will not be a mystery.
If you plan on attending, please include in your
posting how many will be in your group so we can let the restaurant
know how many crazy cachers to expect. Be sure to watch this
page for updates, changes, and/or announcements.

What is the difference between a frog and a cat?
A frog croaks all the time, a cat only nine times.
The origin of the 9 integers can be attributed to
the ancient Indian civilization, and was adopted by subsequent
civilizations in conjunction with the 0. Nine is the atomic number
of fluorine. A human pregnancy normally lasts nine months. Nine
ball is the standard professional pocket billiards. Cats have 9
lives. "Love Potion No. 9" was originally performed by The Clovers
in 1955. The word "K-9" pronounces the same as canine and is used
in many U.S. police departments to denote the police dog unit.
