Time is running out to nominate capable people to run for office on the SLAGA board. If you believe that you or someone you know would make an excellent SLAGA president, vice president, secretary or treasurer, then log on to the SLAGA.org website and submit your nomination before the Summer Picnic on July 12th. The nomination page can be accessed by clicking on the SLAGA Officer(s) Nominations link in the gray "User Menu" box along the right side of the home page.

Once all of the nominations are gathered, they will be organized into a ballot that will be sent to our members at the email address associated with their SLAGA.org account. Completed ballots must then be emailed back by August 31st in order to be counted. Next year's board will be officially announced at the Fall Picnic.

As many of you know, Joe Armstrong, better known as JoGPS, passed away quietly at his home this week. Joe's contributions to Geocaching and this community are so numerous that it becomes difficult to even acknowledge them all, much less to do justice to them, but we are going to try. The MTGC has secured Joe's favorite pavilion at Nashville's Warner Park to host a tribute to "Da Man", our own JoGPS on July 18th, 2015.

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.
