Our First Unofficial Letterboxing Club Meeting

On November 20th, 2011 we had an unofficial word of mouth letterboxing club meeting.  We had the meeting to work out some bugs and to get a feel on how the meeting was going to run.  Counting myself we had nine people attend.  Things we talked about were: What is Letterboxing, Letterboxing 101, DO's and Don't of letterboxing, Atlas Quest questions and functions, The Letterboxers companion, What a letterbox, a cootie and a hitchhiker look like, What a clue looks like and their differences, and putting together a letterbox hunters kit.  We treated it as a mini letterboxing event.  We also went out letterboxing, but came back empty handed.  That's the nature of the beast sometimes you win and sometimes you get skunked.  There were 3 stamps that Newbies were able to stamp in their new logbook.  All in all it was a good get together.  We are going to have one more unofficial meeting before the Official meeting on December 4th, 2011 at 1:00 p.m.  At this meeting we will introduce people to the wonderful world of stamp carving. If you would like to attend message me on atlasquest.com under Oregon Head Hunters, and we'll see if we can get you in.  I'm sure there'll be no problem.  We also hit a100 letterbox finds yesterday, we are so excited.  Until next time, Letterbox Like Crazy.
