Tim, there are a couple of us who work right by the school.  You should
join us for lunch sometime.  There are or used to be some good caches in
Laumeier (I am sure I mis-spelled it) Sculpture Park right at Watson Rd
and 44 and 270 area.  I know RGS had a really good one in there, unusual
container.  Emmenegger Park is a good one too.  Right at 270 and 44. =20

I am sure people will hide some if need be.

How are you liking the drive from St. Charles to Sunset Hills?  A nice
hike, huh?  Well, good luck on the job.

Bridget

Greetings all.  My, life has been hectic (and still is) but I'm hoping
to be a bit more active in geocaching, rather than just letting things
tick over.

I'm now the IT department for Thomas Jefferson School (a private jr
high/high school in south county), and I'm getting invlved in school
life.

I'd like to do a (one off for now) group hunt with students who would
like to, keeping it in the south county area.  However, a group hunt
with only one GPSr (mine) would not be much fun, so I'm asking for help.
I'm not setting any dates, yet, just trying to get some agreement in
principle, plus any ideas, before I formally suggest the idea to the
rigth body within the school.

My thoughts so far would be to assign 1 or 2 students to each person
with a GPSr.  I think 3 to a GPSr shoudl be plenty, but I'd prefer to
keep it to 2 (student plus SLAGA member).  I'd do all the prep with the
students prior (to get them accounts on gc.com, and to work out which
caches to go for).  Once a list was set, I'd ask volunteers to load
their GPSrs with the waypoints. SUggestions for good caches to try would
of course be welcomed at the appropriate time.  And if anyone felt that
they would like to *place* a cache specifically for this, that would be
pretty cool too.


So, in short:
1) Do you think this is a good thing for SLAGA?
2) would you (personally) be willing to help (in principle, obviously,
depending on the date)?
3) how many people (total - students + helpers) do you think would be a
good maximum so it's not unwieldy (also note that we'll probably have a
few additional members of staff, and we will also probably have use of
the (small-ish) school bus for getting around)?
4) any other suggestions as to how to organize such an event
