The first SLAGA road trip was to Evansville on May 1 thru May 3. We had 8 people, in 2 cars. I don’t think any of us know how many caches we will be able to log. This was a challenge cache trip. In the Evansville, IN area there are about 180 challenge caches. We signed a lot of challenge caches and a lot of traditional caches.
Now we have the fun of logging all the challenge caches. We had a meet and greet at Cracker Barrel for breakfast and met a good group of Indiana cachers. It was great putting some faces with some of the names on the caches that we were finding.
This was a great way to get to know other cachers. We had lots of laughs and found lots of caches. Made a wrong turn or two; one car made several wrong turns, but we won’t mention any names. Right Trekto?
I was sad when it was over and looking forward to future “SLAGA Road Trips”

It was a brisk Saturday morning at Eravau's Pi Day Flash mob on 3-14-2015. There was a great attendance, so much as to get the local park employee to come out and join us in the festivities.

A total of 14 four-person teams participated in the Grave Hop Road Rally on Saturday, November 15. This was the first time that L Frank and I hosted this type of event. We had so much fun planning for the road rally, and then hearing about your adventures and seeing your "scavenger hunt" photographs!
All of the teams left from the breakfast event (GC5FJQB) at 7:30 am and had five hours to complete the rally. Each team was give the coordinates to the starting points of 14 different tasks within 10 different cemeteries, each team starting with a different task. Each team also had a list of items to find in the cemeteries that would earn them bonus points. To earn points for the tasks and bonus items, the teams had to photograph all four teammates completing a task or standing next to a bonus item. (Any part of the team members' bodies was acceptable!) Eight teams completed all the tasks, but only four of those teams came up with all the correct answers!
Here are the results:
1st Place = Team # 9 - Swelgus, WadeLori, Kimberteacher, Moonchild1800 - 4405 points
2nd Place = Team # 14 - SGTMTA, Rogbarn, Nan-d1955 - 4115 points
