Virtual Rewards 2.0!
« on: May 16, 2019, 12:32:44 am »
As a thank you to cache hiders worldwide, Geocaching HQ is introducing Virtual Rewards 2.0! We are inviting all qualified cache hiders to sign up for a chance to create a new Virtual. We plan to randomly select up to 4,000 qualified geocachers (with geographic distribution). All Virtuals must meet the Virtual Reward guidelines . Follow the link below to see if you qualify! If you own more than one geocaching account, please apply only with one account.

Where do I start?
  • To request a Virtual cache, check your eligibility
  • If eligible, submit your request by June 1, 2019
  • June 4, Geocaching HQ will perform a randomized drawing to distribute the Virtuals and email winners directly

Eligibility
To be eligible to apply, you must meet the following criteria:
  • Virtual Reward: You did not receive a previous Virtual Reward.
  • Ownership: You must own at least two active non-event geocaches.
  • Hidden: You must own at least one geocache published within the past four years (May 14, 2015 to May 14, 2019).
  • Activity: You must have posted a log on a geocache within the past four months.
  • Quality: Your owned geocaches must have at least 25 total Favorite points.


Good luck everyone

Now THIS is something I’m exited about and think is worth doing ;D

Interesting to hear on the GCHQ podcast that they considered doing this with Webcams, but decided not to because of privacy laws.

Saw the notification, what a great place for a Virtual.

I’m stuck in Cambridge for a couple more weeks now, so I’ll find it when I get back  :)
