Wow! The support and responses from “Why I Quit Geocaching” has been… wow! I had no idea. It makes me sad that so many cachers experienced some of the negativity I did but the outpouring of support is just — wow!
And I have to say, I wrote that blog post at 1 am when I just couldn’t sleep with all this running through my head. I even debated about posting it but decided that I would be better to be completely honest with everything.
Which is why I’m honestly asking for help for funds for Geocaching GPS. I’ve started a Kickstarter campaign to raise $850 to cover JUST the costs of producing the book for the contributors. Here’s my math:
- $15 per person to print and ship the book to them (About 40 contributors) = $600
- $40 to ship the books to ME so I can send them out (less expensive than sending directly) $50
- Less pledge prizes $50-100
- Minus Kickstarter fees (REALLY hard to calculate) $100
So to get the $650-$700 I HAVE to have to do my part, I’ll need to raise $850. And Kickstarter is an all or nothing — either I raise the $850 and get funded or I don’t and receive NO money.
But you can help! You can pledge (the BEST) or you can share the project. There are social media sharing links right on the page.
