Geocachers at Disney

[Tommy Evans]

I'd love to hear your feedback on this...

Let me preface this by saying that my family and I love to go geocaching. If you are not familiar with this hobby, then this may not be a topic for you (but you can learn about it at geocaching.com). If so, read on...

Our family will be going to Walt Disney World in a few weeks, and will be there on February 29th - "leap day". I'm planning on catching a virtual geocache at Magic Kingdom to obtain the souvenir for finding a cache. But there's also a souvenir for attending an event. SO - I created at event at Magic Kingdom - just 45 minutes in the evening right before our dinner reservations. I thought it would be very cool to meet other cachers from all over the US / world, chat a little, and get the event souvenir.
I created the event, but the reviewer denied it because it would require people to have a park ticket. But - that's the whole idea. If I held the event off Disney property, then I'd expect to get a lot of locals attending, and that's not really the point.

I'm just wondering how many geocachers go to Disney, and - specifically -how many will be there on February 29th.

I go to Disney annually but will not be there this month...sorry. Otherwise I would attend! Our family loves geocaching!

Set the event for right outside of MK, like at the base of the monorail entrance. or at the IG at Epcot.
