16:00 to 17:00 - 25 Years of Geocaching - What's Next? event - Neil Hunt Park SESSIONS & PANELS REVIEWER DISCUSSION PANEL This is your chance to hit up your hard working and extremely knowledgeable reviewers with every question you can think of around geocaching and how your geocache submissions are reviewed. We expect to have all three of the New Zealand based reviewers, and maybe a couple of guests from overseas who will be able to add further perspective. A great opportunity also to thank the reviewers for their tireless work! Presenters: Nick (TheCur8or), Natalie (LadyPolgara), Andrew (TheCoddiwompler), and guests PUZZLE SOLVING Split into two sessions aimed at different levels of puzzle geocache skills and interests, these sessions will introduce and develop concepts and strategies around how to go about solving puzzle geocaches, and by extension provide some insight into how to create good puzzles. Each session will include a theory portion followed by a group solve of a brand new puzzle cache published on the day. These new caches will be available for a big joint [FTF] for everyone who finds them on the day. Presenters: Bruce (Davidson123Clan) and Kurt (KiwiDoesStuff) CACHE CAMOUFLAGE Hear from a couple of the masters of geocache camouflage and construction, and learn some of the secrets of putting together great camouflaged caches. If you have ever been geocaching in the upper North Island, you will likely have come across some of the amazing geocache creations from our two presenters, so during this session you will have a chance to learn about different products and methods of construction and ask them any burning questions you have. Presenters: Glyn (G_2) and Michael (Gorbygorbachov) GADGET CACHES We all love a good gadget cache, and there are a few hiders around New Zealand who create fun and interesting gadget cache experiences, so come along and learn a bit about the creativity and engineering that goes into gadget caches. You don't necessarily need to be an electronic whiz, or a civil engineer, to build a good gadget cache, and this is your opportunity to learn some of the secrets and get some inspiration to give it a go yourself. Presenters: Allan Weldon (GadgetCacheNZ) |
