This being my second visit to Reno in 12 months, I have got to know a few of the local geocachers. When they heard I was heading back to town, Jeditrekr put on a traditional geocaching pizza event to mark the occasion.
Prior to the event I headed out with Jeditrekr to do some caching and one of the memorable ones was You Sunk my Battleship!!, where you had to play Battleship online first to find out the final coordinates then there was an imaginative cache container when you got there.
The event was “Welcome Back Firesafe” and held at Uncle Vinny’s Pizza in Sparks. I had visions of some hole in the wall pizza joint in Downtown Sparks but was surprised by a new modern pizza joint :).
It was a huge turnout with 50+ local geocachers and families. The pizza and company was great with the biggest surprise being the price of a pint of beer – $2.29 with tax :D.
I dropped off a few Travelbugs but came away with a lot more to bring back to Australia. I also made sure that everyone had one of my new Reno Pathtags. It was a good night out. Thanks Richard for putting on the event.
