Geocache Description:

Groundspeak has announced new souvenirs for Leap Day 2016. There are two souvenirs up for grabs- one for attending an event on 29 February as well as one for finding a geocache on the weekend leading up to Leap Day (27 -29 February).

The Roman dictator Julius Caesar is considered the “Father” of leap year. The ancient Roman calendar system was based on a total of 355 days in a year—a full 10 and a ¼ days shorter than a solar year, which is the length of time it takes the Earth to make one complete orbit around the sun.

Therefore we get a leap year every 4 years.

So, thanks to Julius Caesar we can have this event and earn a souvenir…...

Date: Monday 29 February 2016.

Time: 18:30 till 20:30.

Venue: Ye Olde Tavern.
