You've heard of MEGA-EVENTS? This is quite the opposite in a variety of ways. FLASH MOBS have gathered for other reasons (http://tinyurl.com/7qpml).
Come be part of this historic event!
The event will last EXACTLY 15 minutes, not one second longer. The event will begin precisely at 11:00am (Central Standard Time) on November 10th.
The event will be held at Green square park. This is in an open public space.
The event will be highly organized and facilitated by volunteers. A minute by minute itinerary will be posted.
We will also have printed copies of this ultra-precise itinerary distributed at the event.

The Plan At exactly 11:00am (as determined by the GPS clock) we will place a bucket full of nice, new swag at the coordinates. We will place a small CD player on the ground near the bucket to play some pleasant, upbeat music. At this point, all geocachers will converge, seeming to come out of "nowhere". (grin) One volunteer will hand out "log sheets" / raffle entries (same sheet). Participants will sign the log sheets
(which will later become a log book)
to qualify for attendance and drop them in a designated collection box.
Bring a pen. Participants may trade swag via the swag bucket at any time. We encourage you to bring nice swag to trade.
If any muggles are curious about the event we will have a volunteer hand out fliers that explain geocaching. At a designated time, we will toss out Hershey Kisses to all attendance for the event "meal". At a designated time, we will take a group photo. At a designated time, we will call out the raffle winners. One of the raffle items will be the FTF honors certificate. At precisely 11:15 the bucket, and the log sheets will be packed up and sealed away. The event area will be vacated without a trace!!! Events that happen after 11:15:01 do not count as part of THIS event. Only those participants whose names appear on the log sheets may log the event. Tell your friends and help promote the event!
Note: Although participants are welcome to get together after the event, the event will officially be over at 11:15. Afterwards, at the meeting, participants may chat, meet, eat and plan for a day of caching!!!
I'm sure there will be several muggles nearby who will wonder "What did I just see? What just happened?"
(That's part of the fun!)
