BoxON! 2013 - Ode to the 80's Mixed Tape: A Jammin Letterboxing Party

Congratulations to our hosts at Box ON! 2013. We had an amazing time.

First find was Cecil Won the Race Kitchener ON http://www.atlasquest.com/showinfo.html?gBoxId=200878. And then we got serious and started looking for the new boxes that were planted just for this meet up. We teamed up with another family and found all 6 of the boxes in the

1980's Bands Series Kitchener ON http://www.atlasquest.com/showinfo.html?gBoxId=228550. One of them was especially tricky but we did it!

After a delicious picnic lunch at the pavillion in Huron Park we headed back into the woods to find all the 1980's Album Covers Kitchener ON http://www.atlasquest.com/showinfo.html?gBoxId=228548. We were nearly tripped up by one set of clues but figured them all out just like any good seasoned letterboxing team would . . . LOL.

We moved on to Rockway Gardens to find our 300th box . . . Can-Am Merger Kitchener ON http://www.atlasquest.com/showinfo.html?gBoxId=202317

Austin is holding our 300th box and Taylor says 3, Cameron says 0 and I say 0 . . . woo hoo . . .

By the time we found Greetings, Earthling Kitchener ON http://www.atlasquest.com/showinfo.html?gBoxId=221075 and Flutterby Kitchener ON http://www.atlasquest.com/showinfo.html?gBoxId=209198, it was time to head to the Rum Runners Pub to meet up with everyone else who were attending, have dinner, do exchanges and win a few prizes.

It was an amazing day. I don't know how the volunteers (I don't know who they are) for 2014 are going to top this meet up.
