BIG Little Event II is coming...

Post by jgc3 » 07 February 13 1:48 pm

Hi all,

You might want to keep the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th Oct 2014 free... WINK WINK :)

I've booked it for BIG Little Event II - official announcement and the website will be
showing updated information on location etc NEXT Wednesday 13th Feb. 2013

For those munzee players that attended the first BLE.. you know we looked after you with plenty of
munzees (in fact over 50 mystery tags deployed plus others)

We will be looking after you again.. but with some new fun deploys too... TIMED MUNZEES.. only available during a certain time..
get there and grab it fast.. plus some other surprises we're working on..

In the tradition of the first event we've already got some of the things you liked about the first locked in..

Free Face painting
Free Bouncy Castle
Free Entertainment / Concert

And this time...

You can bring your PETS..
Lots of level powered campsites
And you are welcome to enjoy a quiet drink at the event site..

We have a surprise or two in store.....

And for those of you that might like to attend..

We have some exclusive PT's that you can only get if you attended BLE number one.. We will not be making these available to anyone else...

Plus for those that come and register early (once new website is live after next Wednesday 13th Feb 2013..) an "Early Bird" PT being designed now and will be sent out in coming months... also only available to people whom get registered and paid early.. you'll still receive all the regular goodies in your event bag..

We'll also have a few PT swap meets organised for the event with TWO more unique BLE designs ONLY
available at the Event during those meetings..

And if you CAN'T get enough BLE goodness?! We're also offering a LIFETIME BLE PASS.. no more
registration FEES EVER.. just a once only discounted payment... and YES we're already organising BLE III...

More to come... the clock is ticking.. hope to see you all again for BLE II...

You're welcome to drop me an email if you have any questions.. but I can't tell you everything yet. :)

Regards
James

Excellent, look forward to meeting you. We're looking to do a "Mini event" (or should I say Little!) within the BIG event just
for the K9's... complete with toys, treats etc..

Let me know what you think.

James

Thanks, we love dogs, but unfortunately could not find a location for the first BLE that was where we wanted to be.. but
this time is very different. Nice location but also plenty of room for the dogs to play..

As said above want to do a "doggy style" event.. oh umm.. let me explain.. a get together for your pets..

Cheers
James

Nice interview James. :D

As it didn't come on until 10.20 pm, it was interesting to hear the chats to listeners ringing into the station prior to your interview as well.
They were talking about the ghost tours of a church in Canberra by Tim the Yowie Man. This guy did an interview recently with tankengine on Geocaching in Canberra that made the newspapers. Also the interesting chats about tunnel tours under Sydney and the old unused railway stations around Sydney in particular.

I thought your interview was very good and informative . Some light hearted moments and example of the xmas cache down your way had him thinking.
Nice positive outlook on all the aspects of geocaching. I see you even got a free plug in for your magazine and the BIG little event.

Well done James =D> =D>

Hi

Thank you, always good to promote the hobby in general and great to promote our event and magazine. Yes, it was interesting I also had a listen to the other callers and enjoyed the show. Even had a few people email me to get some more help on joining our hobby.. or is it a sport.. oh we already did that one!!! So wonderfull to hear from new people thinking of getting onboard.

Certainly been interesting with the media attention we got recently down here, makes for a good scrap book for the grand kids..

Look forward to seeing you in Canberra.. Cheers
