CW event in Worcester
By: trix93 Date: July 18, 2013, 3:11 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
As October seems to be free would it be possible to hold an
event in Worcester City, as there seems to be quite a lot of
caches within a mile radius.
Or has it already been done?
I am not sure I would know how to organise it although I am
willing if someone can give me a few pointers as to what to do
etc.
:D

That's great your interesting in holding an event! :)
I don't think we've gone up that far before, so it'd make a good
change!
I'm currently making a "Want to hold a CW event page?" On here
to give people some pointers. It's normally us forum regulars
who hold them, but of course, any CacheWalker can. All that we
ask for it to use the CacheWalker name is that:
1. It's posted on this forum to let us all know
2. It'd be preferable to use the CW event page format (copy and
paste code and then fill in!)
I'll split this topic later and add some tips, as starting to
run late for today now :o Will also paste event page code here
later, if you want to use it, but you don't have to :)

I've done a bit of caching in Worcester, even been to an event
up there :) There are some keen cachers up there including a
certain pair who won the CacheWalker Superbike Challenge in 2008
:D
For your first Event, especially if you haven't been to any
events, is to have the straight forward meet and greet type
event. Just choose a suitable location, usually a pub with a
reasonable amount of room, checking with the pub it's OK.
I know Griff is going to post more on this, so will hold off
saying any more.

Will try and finish the page and get it up later today :)
Will keep you posted. Have split the topic to keep masses of
discussion away from the CW event thread :)

off (at the moment).

For some reason, I cannot paste the code there, so I will do so
here for you, temporally - though it will be found just above
the first photo on the page for anyone to copy :)

having a skittle tournament (see below!), but other than that

faces to names, and catch up with friends along with joining in

Thanks for doing that, I have copied and pasted it into a Word
document, so that I can save it. Will read it over the weekend
and see what I think.
Also, this reply box has gone really wide all of a sudden :)
