Geocache Description:

Please join us Americans for a Dönerstag 7:30 AM breakfast (we will see if the kitchen will make kebabs) at Quill's restaurant. We will finish around 8:30 if people need to get to work. So that I can get a proper count for the restaurant, please select "Will Attend" if you plan on coming.

Dönerstag began in 2007 when German cachers met at kebab shops around the country all at the same time. The tradition caught on!

These special events are held each year on a Thursday. In German, this makes the name “Dönerstag” a pun: The German word for Thursday is “Donnerstag.” Kebab translates to “Döner.”

Last year, over 6000 players attended 233 Dönerstag events. The events were held all over Europe, from Germany and Austria to the United Kingdom and Switzerland.
