Meet the New Texas Geocaching Association!
Where: GeoJewett's Backyard
When: 9/10/11, 12pm – 4pm. No geocachers will be present at
4:01pm
The Texas Geocaching Association (TXGA) was formed in January
2003 by Sam Morrow (UsMorrows), Candy Lind (Moosiegirl), and Will
Nienke (9Key). Their vision and efforts have brought us here today;
however, as with any organization, it is time that we revitalize
TXGA. From this point forward, September 10th will be TXGA DAY!
To commemorate this first TXGA DAY, we are wiping the slates
clean and beginning anew.
Events like this one are being held across the state of Texas
and the TXGA is encouraging EVERY TEXAS GEOCACHER to find an event
near you and attend. TXGA Reps are hosting and will provide
everyone with all the information that you will need to renew or
become a member of the Texas Geocaching Association.
Why become a TXGA Member? What does TXGA do for Texas geocaching
and me in particular? Do I get anything by becoming a member? These
are just a few of the questions that will be answered at this
event.
In addition, we will have a computer(s) hooked up to allow you
to join before you leave the event.
We highly encourage anyone and everyone to bring those pop-up
canopies to shade us. Also, bring your swimsuits and towels if you
want to swim. PLEASE do not park in front of the fire-hydrant or
the walking path entrance (clearly marked with a sign). You risk a
ticket or worse. For example, your car could be forcefully moved or
broken into by the fire department if they need the fire
hydrant.
Place this event on your watchlist for updates as to when we
actually take the new TXGA website online OR you can friend TEXAS
GEOCACHING ASSOCIATION on Facebook to stay up to date.
