Hi Laura Binrat and myself (Geogranny) were thinking of a lunch time event in Kingston around the 24th of February. This would be an excellent opportunity for you to come out to meet and exchange information with other cachers. We chose lunch time so new cachers would be able to venture out with a more experienced cacher in the afternoon if they so wished. Plans are tentative at the moment but if there is interest in an event at this time we will go ahead. The only venue we can think of to hold such an event is Doffer's http://www.kinwu.com/ but we are open to any suggestions as to time, place etc. Graeme, you requested an event, is this date and time convenient for you?

I am a newbie to this geocaching activity so I would like to be included in the mailings and also be in contact with people who would permit me to develop some form of learning curve. Is there any reputable course you can take in this area to become a qualified GPS instructor or be involved with a course of some kind to the dynamics of this wonderfully fun and intriguing pastime? Please get back to me and if I have somehow sent a global message, please forgive me....I have a "blonde" disability! LOL LOL :>) Sincerely, Laura Forkes PS At the present time I have been given for Christmas a GARMIN GPSMAP 76CS PLUS. JUST a F.Y.I. as far as GPS units go. ----- Original Message ----- From: Bob Connelly To: KAG Sent: Saturday, January 06, 2007 9:04 AM Subject: [kag] New GSAK macro I don't know how many of you keep an eye on the new macros that come available for GSAK , but there is a new version of a macro worth checking out. myGME v2 - GSAK Google Maps Export will make all the caches you have currently displayed in GSAK on Google Maps. What is even better is that you can easily switch from Google Maps to Canadian topo maps. It works very well. Eventhough I got TOPO Canada for Christmas, I think this will might be very useful. http://gsak.net/board/index.php?showtopic=3782&st=20&; B. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ No virus found in this incoming message.
