It has become a tradition for me to host a geocaching event to end the current year or to welcome the new one. This year was my seventh event on either the 31st of December or the 1st of January. The temperature at 9:00 in the morning was a bit chilly, but the sun was shining. Hubby and I furnished donuts for those attending the Hello 2025 event at Flatiron Park in Apache Junction. Providing donuts is a small thank you to the area geocachers for placing geocaches and to thank them for supporting my events.
I try to greet every one who comes to the event.
Cade, age 3 was the youngest attendee. He came with his grandpa who attends most of my AZ events. Cade enjoyed the glazed donut and went home with a plastic cobra to add to his animal collection.
If I took the photo, I have added my watermark. Other photos came from Marlene (Eagles Landing from WI) or Sherry (LifeisGuud from WA).

there were 3 geo pups at the event this year; all were well-behaved
the purpose of a geo event: visit and get to know other geocachers
the virtual souvenir that was awarded that day
I had been awarded a special honor (as have other but not all geocachers) to host an event with special guidelines sometime in 2025. Anyone attending the event got the virtual souvenir. Hubby will host his later this year back in South Dakota.
It was a great start to 2025!
