10 Years of Geocaching …

After attending the 60th Anniversary of Blackwood CFS at the Blackwood Football Club, it was time to head back down to Adelaide to Celebrate Ten Years of Geocaching.

On 3rd May 2000 the first cache was hidden by Dave Ulmer in the forests of Oregon.

On Monday 8th March 2010 the number of active caches worldwide exceeded one million.

Today saw Adelaide’s chance to celebrate the occasion and 150 cachers met in the South Parklands. Activities this afternoon included the group photo, the obligatory Birthday Cake, face painting for the kids and plenty of time catching up with other cachers.

2010 SAPES Games Stair Race

What a busy day today. Four things on starting at 8:00 am with the Stair Race at Wakefield House for the SAPES Games.

I was asked to fill in for the organiser back in 2008 and I am still doing it now 3 years later.

This year saw a record entries both in the Stair Sprint and the Full Firefighter Race.

This year also saw a record time set of 1:22 for the 18 story sprint. The previous record was 1:42. 🙂
