COTM - April 2018

Cache Of The Month Nominations - August

Do you know of a cache that is worthy of the title of Cache of the Month? The GoSA committee will decide on the winner each month and the criteria for each month's Cache of the Month may change. We will announce the criteria for the upcoming month in the preceeding month's newsletter.

Please nominate a geocache for the GoSA Cache of the Month by emailing the details (name, GC code) as well as a detailed justification as to what makes it so amazing. Feel free to include photos, your story of finding the cache and any other useful information to assist the panel in making a decision. Please note that to nominate a cache, you should have found the cache, and cannot be the owner of the cache. Please send your nominations to .

The owner of the selected Cache of the Month will be notified and sent a badge which they can add to their cache description.

As we have done since May, the next couple of months we will be focusing on all the different cache types. August's COTM will be for the best Letterbox cache. Send us your nominations of an amazing letterbox you've found. Please email us at to submit your nomination, no posted nominations will be accepted ;).

Secret cargo aboard the Golden Cache was stolen by 5 cutthroat pirates. Mary Hyde, the captain, was furious and vowed to track down her treasure. She made notes in the ship’s logbook as to where she thought it was but tragically the ship sank one evening and there were no survivors. Mary’s notes survived although they are now in disarray. Will you honour Mary and help uncover the secret treasure?

This month’s Cache of the Month is Mary Hyde and The Great Star of Africa, GC7E49Z, an intricate puzzle that places you in the centre of Mary Hyde’s predicament. After being nominated twice it clearly deserves the award. Congratulations to Spesbona on creating a truly memorable geocaching experience!
