I don't get it either.
Pizza or habitat - I'd vote for the habitat cache first. Seems more worth
while.
Mayby the trick is to call it "Geocaching Event".
I've heard of cachers going on a canoe float/geocaching event and logging it
as a find.
(I'm in trouble now)

I saw the note. So doesn't meeting for pizza fall in exactly the same place ?

: There is an note on the cache page with an explanation:
:
: Gosh,
: I'm sorry, this sounds like a truly worthwhile event, but it is not a
: geocaching event. It will be an event that some geocachers participate in
: but it would be no more a geocaching event than a concert or baseball game
: or blood drive would be.
: Regretfully for that reason we can't post it as an geocaching event cache.
: You're certainly welcome to mention it in your regional forum as an
: alternate way of soliciting participation.
: Best wishes,
: geocaching.com admin
:
: I agree with them not posting it.
