Geocache Description:

From out of the West, in a cloud of dust,
a thunder of hooves and a mighty GREAT SCOTT!

It's the last round up!
It's the final show down!




"Doc" Brown invites you to the
rough ridin',
rip roarin,
rootin' tootin',
straight shootin'
rousing,
World Wide Multi-Event
of
Back to the Cache!






We have reached the future that was set in BTTF2.

It's Back to the Future Day!
Yes. I know it's the 'future date' that matters here.
However, considering the location of this event,
we will be celebrating this epic moment
with the theme from the third flick in the trilogy.
(Wide West)

Regardless, because we are able to ignore both time and space,
feel free to come dressed as your favorite Back to the Future character
from any time frame or in your best 80's outfit!
Bonus points if you can come with a partially faded hand and a Polaroid.


This event will be at the Pioneer's Museum,
Colorado Springs.
It will be Flash Mob style.


Mill about the whole clock tower square
for a short period
anytime after 4:00pm.
At 4:20pm move to the South side of the Clock Tower,
in the gazebo.
We will meet and greet there
and countdown to 4:29pm.

In the event there are already folks in the gazebo,
We will be on the East side.
(posted coordinates)
After everyone has signed the log,
we will all yell those immortal words of Biff Tannen,
'Make like a tree and get out of here!'
Then disperse.



How would you like to be the owner of this unactivated,
crazy-cool, blinky-LED, glow-in-the-dark, Flux Capacitor Trackable Geocoin?
There will be some sort of contest to become the owner.
Come prepared, if you want to enter.
These contest are the typical contests you see at these events.
You know? The one with the stretches and the pieces you give
and the other pieces you keep...


This unactivated mini tag,
trackable at geocaching.com, will also be up for grabs!!
A second contest will be held for this one.
Again, you'll need the normal stuff if you want to enter.
(Only one tag to be got... Shown with a second tag for backside and dime for scale.)


This unactivated Powerboard Geocoin,
trackable at geocaching.com, will be the third item someone will take with them!!
A third contest will be held for this one.
As before, you'll need the typical items if you want to enter.
(Only one Powerboard will go... Shown with a second coin for backside and dime for scale.)


This unactivated BTTC coin,
trackable at geocaching.com, will be the fourth item that will be
sure to make someone "Pretty in Pink!"
(Oh, wait! Wrong Movie!!)
A fourth contest will be held for this one.
As before, you'll need the typical items if you want to enter.
NOTE: This is the XLE (extra limited edition) of the BTTC Coin series.

So...
That's the current plans for this future event.
Of course, I'm working on other things and I may disturb
the space-time continuum before the activities occur.
Please be flexible and watch for announcements.
'Watch' or Log a 'Will Attend' for this event.
Those are the best ways to get announcements.
