WOODBOOGER Updates!!!


Some of the wondrous folks behind the 
Norton Virginia Woodbooger Events
have been in contact with me and have asked
that I provide all my geocaching friends with some updates
on the events and happenings in and around
Norton Virginia coming this September!!


First of all - 
If you have not completed the 2018 version of the 
Woodbooger GeoTour - you only have weeks left to do so.
Sometime late August the current caches will disappear!
On September 7, at about 10AM the NEW
2019 version of the Geo-Tour will be published.

There will also be a Friday Night Cookout


The Woodbooger Crew wants to give back to you with a Woodbooger Cookout!

Join us for Food, Fun and Fellowship.
Bring your funniest and most entertaining geostories to tell.
There will be a prize for the best told story! I know there are some good ones out there.
Event starts at 6:00 PM and will end at 8:00 PM

AND On Saturday...

Woodbooger GeoTrail Kickoff 2019

At 10AM - The brand Woodbooger Trail will hit the geocaching
community!!!  And the first 150 people to Complete a passport
with 25 points required will receive a the above CUSTOM trackable geocoin!

Now, let me tell you this - and this is coming straight from
me - not from anybody in Norton!!!

Sewwatt heads up a fantastic group of geocachers
that organize this event.

The City of Norton really gets involved with this entire
weekend (as well as some of the nearby communities).
I have met the Mayor of Norton as well as a City Councilman or two at
these events, and while geocaching around the city.
All the stores in the area surrounding Norton generously contribute
to this weekend not only with discounts on meals, rooms and services,
but also by contributing merchandise and coupons for raffles and door prizes!!!

Speaking of discounts:  The local hotels in the area are offering these deals:

Days Inn - 10% discount - 276-679-5340

Super 8 - $58.95 nightly - Mention Geocaching - 276-207-8833

OH!!! Let's not forget this...
the old version....

The picture just above is the 2017 version of the Woodbooger footprint.

This Geo-Art will also be disappearing from the Western part of Virginia
very, very soon - so if you have NOT completed it...

On Friday September 6...

a new Geo-Art will be published near Norton!!!
