Leap Frog registrations are now open

[Just a cacher]

No, I think you'd better cancel any plans you may have, and re-organise them AROUND Race time. Definitley the best plan.

Yeah! My PathTags have arrived at last, thank you very much indeed.

I might have missed the announcement, but who were the winners of the great frog race, other than all the cachers who took part?

All glory to the hypno toad....


(What? Am i the only one who sees the futurama reference, with those frogs?)

I was just thinking while out this afternoon grabbing a frog that I missed during the race, that I knew there were a number of other frogs in the area that I wasn't bothering with because post-race I don't generally refind moveables (by default they don't show up in my search filters on GSAK or Geosphere).

Perhaps if anyone does want their frog to come home now the race is over post a note here. With the mega getting close I am sure someone can grab it, take it to Albury, and find a cacher prepared to take it back to it's home city.

I'm happy to try to retrieve any Sydney frogs over the next 2 weekends to bring down, and will bring any back that want a trip home.

Sounds like a good idea to gradually retrieve some of the many Leap Frogs. I'm going to grab mine whenever they venture close to the Blue Mountains.

Then they can enjoy a happy and sedate retirement in Leura . . .
