Cachers of the Round Table

No Show for July 2010

Thu, 1 Jul 2010 04:00:00 GMT

We're back in the summer month in North America when we're all busy with events. With all of the great geocaching events and personal events in June and July we weren't able to get a panel together at one time this month to record. We're crossing our fingers that we'll be able to record a show for August but July is looking even more active than was June. In place Firefly03 and I might put together a little show about our travel caching if that might interest you. Please drop us an e-mail at cachersroundtable@gmail.com or post a comment on this article.
