    Not about this show specifically but you had Jayme H from Groundspeak on a while back. Looks like she is not longer working there or else at least not in the capacity she was previously which was the user feedback forum. Can you find out please? πŸ™‚

      Barb – Not sure where that info came from, but I checked with Eric at Geocaching HQ and he replied, “Jayme still works in the same capacity, bringing the insight of geocachers into the creation of new tools on the site and in the geocaching apps.”

    I love the story about “geocaching proposal” πŸ™‚ What a great idea! To be honest I’m little bit jealous. My fiancΓ©e was so romantic that he pop the question near the fountain that was… off πŸ™‚

    • PodCacher April 16, 2015 at 10:09 am #

      Well, that gives you a “unique’ story, right?!? πŸ™‚

    The closest WWFM event to me so far is about 300 miles away – here’s hoping something pops up closer!

  5. Electric Water Boy April 7, 2015 at 6:02 am #

    Ripemous – Want a closer event? Host one! Made my decision yesterday on what we’ll be doing at mine. Now to decide exactly where. Have a few ideas on that.

    So excited for GeoWoodstock! We’ve been working for several years to put on a quality event. Can’t wait to welcome Sonny, Sandy, Sean and everyone else who is coming to Maryland!

    • PodCacher April 16, 2015 at 10:08 am #

      Can’t wait to get there!!

  7. Electric Water Boy April 8, 2015 at 7:27 am #

    Submitted and got published last night my WWFM event. Glad I’m the host and not a participant!

      Awesome – thanks for hosting!

  8. Dopey919 April 8, 2015 at 11:44 am #

    So wishing I could attend Geo Woodstock – Hope everyone that attends has the best time ever!

  9. Austin Race April 9, 2015 at 7:02 pm #

    Looks like we need to put on a WWFM event this year. Thanks for another cool show!

    Sadly I am at a wedding on WWFM day, so I am not sure I will make it to one this year!?

  11. Tony (Kokohawk) April 10, 2015 at 1:43 pm #

    I wish I had the money to travel to Geo Woodstock. I’m jealous of everyone that is going. Hopefully I can attend my first mega event later this year if the event nearby makes it to mega status.

    • PodCacher April 16, 2015 at 10:08 am #

      Hope you can make it to a mega – they are so fun!
