Geocache Description:

09 November 2019, 12:00 - 14:00

It's time for the 2019 Geocaching International Film Festival, also known as GIFF!


There are many things you'll find while geocaching, not just containers. Many times people who geocache find nature, friendship, a love for the outdoors, or simply find inner peace while they are out looking for their next find. Moments like these have been written, filmed, edited and chosen to be on the 2019 GIFF film reel to be shown around the world during the time of November 7-17, 2019!

You're invited to join the fun at the Winnebago Public Library on November 9th at 12:00 noon where the Community Room has been reserved for our event.

Below is a timeline of events for this GIFF gathering:

  • 12:00 Noon - Community Room opens.

  • 12:20pm - Quiet everybody! The movie is about to start!

  • 1:30pm - Film will end. Attendees will be asked to fill out a survey at a later date to see which video(s) were everyone's favorite! A link to the survey will be provided when it is made available.

  • 1:45pm - Group photo will be taken
  • 2:00pm - Event ends and the Community Room will close.

Earn a souvenir for your geocaching profile by attending!
 


Parking at Winnebago Public Library is somewhat limited. Depending on the crowd size that this event draws, attendees may be prepared to park at one of the optional 2 safe parking waypoints I have provided.

The library is wheelchair accessible throughout and this event is free to attend. Follow the coordinates to the event location, or navigate to 210 N. Elida Street to get there. Men's and Women's restrooms are located inside the Community Room where the event is being held.
