This cache has been archived.

derektiffany: Thanks everyone for coming out! Souvenirs should have been awarded. A few people have had to delete / re-log their attendance at a Maker event to get their souvenir. Congrats again to NutmegBrownie on walking away with an ammo-can.

Additional details:
Each year NoVAGO honors some of the best caches that were placed in Northern Virginia, and in so doing also honors the cache owners who have placed them. Thanks to NoVAGO, Serrabou, and Chase Clan 2.3 for continuing this fun tradition this year!

The Nomination Period is now closed. However, the Voting Windows is now open, and intended to be so through Saturday, April 12th at noon. This event will be held while the Voting Window is open. As such, it provides an opportunity to discuss some of the great nominated caches in the area (and beyond), and perhaps even give a little extra appreciation for the cache owners. How many of the nominated caches have you found? Any plans to find a few more while the voting window is open? Any interest in getting together to find a few more with other cachers?

This is also a fine time to discuss the awards process and categories, and even better ways to recognize all the wonderful caches in the area and cache owners who have placed them.

Discussing the proposed topics for the event is not required for attendance. Willingness to listen to some stories of award winning and nominated caches being found however, may be beneficial. Feel free to stop by for a quick hello, or sit a little for a longer conversation.

This event has been registered as a Maker Madness event. As such, 1) everyone who attends will earn a souvenir and 2) showing, telling, talking about, or displaying "Maker" themed items and topics is certainly encouraged. Let's celebrate all the fun caches and COs who have placed them!

Door Prize
One ammo can will be given as a door prize to an attendee, so make sure to drop your name in the Lock-n-Lock for a chance to win. Hopefully this ammo can will make it out into the wild and onto next year's award list!

A note on trackables:
Before leaving without a trackable you came with, please check with the person who intends to pick it up from the event. Conversely, before leaving with a trackable you didn't bring, please check with the person who's dropping it off. Any trackables still in inventory after two weeks (April 15) will regrettably be marked as missing by the CO. Thanks.

Public Transportation
Fairfax Connector routes 623 and 621 run from the Vienna Metro station past the event. Route 623 is more direct, but runs on a more limited schedule.
