As many of you know, Joe Armstrong, better known as JoGPS, passed away quietly at his home this week. Joe's contributions to Geocaching and this community are so numerous that it becomes difficult to even acknowledge them all, much less to do justice to them, but we are going to try. The MTGC has secured Joe's favorite pavilion at Nashville's Warner Park to host a tribute to "Da Man", our own JoGPS on July 18th, 2015.
A Life Too Cool: Celebrating JoGPS
Saturday July 18th
Noon-4PM
"It's about the number of friends you make. The number of smiles you get, while you are just walking around; it's all about just having a good time." - Joe Armstrong
SLAGA Road Trip - Evansville IN

The first SLAGA road trip was to Evansville on May 1 thru May 3. We had 8 people, in 2 cars. I don’t think any of us know how many caches we will be able to log. This was a challenge cache trip. In the Evansville, IN area there are about 180 challenge caches. We signed a lot of challenge caches and a lot of traditional caches.
Now we have the fun of logging all the challenge caches. We had a meet and greet at Cracker Barrel for breakfast and met a good group of Indiana cachers. It was great putting some faces with some of the names on the caches that we were finding.
This was a great way to get to know other cachers. We had lots of laughs and found lots of caches. Made a wrong turn or two; one car made several wrong turns, but we won’t mention any names. Right Trekto?
I was sad when it was over and looking forward to future “SLAGA Road Trips”

It was a brisk Saturday morning at Eravau's Pi Day Flash mob on 3-14-2015. There was a great attendance, so much as to get the local park employee to come out and join us in the festivities.
