Time to archive this event. Thanks everyone for coming. It was a most enjoyable morning. I will send the jacket I still have with someone to the next Manawatu event if it is not claimed before then.
Thanks to everyone who came and helped to make it such a great event. I look forward to meeting many of you again at future Manawatu Geocacachers Club events. There are still 2 people who signed the log book and haven't logged it online and also 2 people who logged it online without signing the physical log book. Please remember to sign the physical log for all events and caches you find. I will be archiving this event in 1 week.
I also still have a black jacket that was left here. If it is yours please send me a message.

Thanks for the great event! Has inspired me to host one for the upcoming 15th birthday in May. Look forward to meeting everyone again! Sorry for the delay in logging. Newbie error! Also omitted to sign the log on the day - again, newbie error!
Yesterday we finished a weeks holiday in Rotorua, and this afternoon we have to be in Napier to look after one of our grandchildren - so of course we are making the journey via Palmerston North. We overnighted at Ashhurst Domain, then came to share a Pi Day Breakfast with a large number of Manawatu based cachers. Nice to meet and talk with as many as we could. Then a Pi Time photo, after which we had to leave.
Thanks stardust718 for opening up your home for this special event.

Another enjoyable Event, meeting up with local cachers, and some from Auckland, Wellington & Wanganui, and maybe places in between. Thanks stardust718 for organising this Event.
Good to catch up with familiar faces, and meet new ones. Thanks for the hospitality and cups of tea!
I got the glad eye when I got home, clearly my having followed instructions to return with the 'not a cache' container was appreciated.

Thanks to the hosts for their hospitality ... it was a yummy pi day!
I can now put a few more faces to those online names ... and hopefully now have a few more clues about some puzzles.
Drop me a line if you are keen to plan a tramp as "It must be done!"

Lots of good company, lots of yummy food, and a special pi pic as well! A lovely gathering - thank you so much for your hospitality stardust718 et al.
There were 2 jackets left behind - a blue hooded kathmandu fleece and a black 'match' vest both size L. If these are yours please message me so we can arrange their return.
Thanks everyone who came. It was a great gathering with 25 unique geocaching names represented. Lovely to meet new people and those from other regions as well as the regular manawatu cachers again.
Attended with Tommy gun 9 just in time for the photo. Was lovely to catch up with fellow cachers. thanks stardust for hosting this event.
No JrGun9 to wake us this morning so we just made the photo - perfect time on target.
It's always nice to catch up with a few cachers - it's been a while, and always nice to meet some new cachers also. Good to see and hear about a few more trackables too.
T F T Event and souvenir stardust718.

Thanks stardust for a most enjoyable get-together - it was great to catch up with many geocaching friends and meet some new faces.
Thanks for holding this event and it was nice to be able to call in on our way home from Feilding to Upper Hutt and meet a few fellow cachers and participate in the 'Pi moment' photo session.
A great event and a good way to start the day!It was good to meet old friends and catch up and to meet new friends too..some just starting in geocaching.Thanks stardust718 for hosting the event and having us visit your home!Well done!
An early morning start, & the first variation of the 6 different caches we were aiming for today (as well as heading to Feilding for the field days).
A big turn out meant lots of new cachers to meet as well as catching up with some familiar faces.
Thanks Mr, Mrs & little stardust718 for opening up your home for the event, & being such awesome hosts.

I really enjoyed catching up with everyone again today. Thanks stardust for hosting the event.
Geocaching is certainly alive and well in Palmerston North, a great turn out of some very motivated locals and a few out of town visitors, like myself, too. Great to meet a few who I knew by name only, and cache up with those I did already know.
Many thanks to stardust718 for organising.

Thank you for hosting this event, interesting to see all different faces up here in Palmerston North. LCBuilder and I came up from Wellington for the weekend for the rugby and of course to grab some caches in a previously untouched area to us!
Mr All7ofusNZ and three of the Jr. Cachers made it to the event and had a great time catching up with many familiar faces, and a number of new ones. A good spread of brunch-time food and a great event all round. Thanks stardust718.
Thanks stardust718 for setting up this event. Was great to catch up with fellow cachers. I had forgotten about the food that was on offer so I scoffed my face hole with breakfast before I left home. I'll learn for next time. Thanks again.
Will be travelling through in the morning and would love to stop for a pi day event.
Fun event, got to meet lots of new people, and talking to other geocachers made me, as a newbie, excited about all the possibilities of what I could do next!
Sorry - once again it fall around the Taranaki Masters Games. But at least this year there is a Pi. Meet at NP. Which I plan to attend.. W
And the New Plymouth event is being held at a very appropriate set of coordinates!!!

Sounds like fun! If the stars align (or Not!) I'll be there as it feels like the irrrational thing to do!
We plan to be staying at Feilding the night before this for the Central Districts Field Days, so hope to pop over to see you by 9:26 before heading back to Manfield. 2 of us.
I'm a newbie and don't know anyone but would love to come and meet a few faces behind the names. Thanks for the invite!
Sounds good to me.

Hopefully should be able to make it this year. Nice way to spend our 23rd wedding anniversary.
