WHAT:
The South Bay Puzzle Rally (SBPR) will be held on November 1, 2008. This puzzle rally is designed for geocachers who are ready to compete against other teams as they race around the South Bay, discovering and solving puzzles our little devious minds created. The first team to solve all the puzzles, find all the caches and beat the clock back to the ending location will receive millions! (Of accolades from their fellow geocachers!) Prizes will be given out, but we all know this is for bragging rights.
The SBPR is planned to be an annual event, with this year’s rally being limited to the first 25 teams to sign up and submit their payment. Don’t forget to log your intent at the Geocaching.com log page.

Registration fees are intended for purchasing prizes, materials and supplies for creating and hosting the rally. Geocachehunter.com is not out to make a profit from this rally.
FOOD:
The SBPR doesn’t provide lunch- so you can plan on your own how to eat-on-the-run or kick it at a restaurant. Up to you! However- for dinner- we will all meet at the final location where each person will be responsible for the cost of their own meal.
Bring PLENTY of water and snacks for competing, as you will not only be driving many miles, but also running a lot! Wear comfortable shoes, and be prepared for an adventure!
