+Pan314159 Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Hi Has anyone heard anything about whether there will be a Leap Year profile souvenir for 29th Feb 2016? That's about three months away, and I want to start getting stuff ready and booked for hosting an event that day. Am I right in thinking that there have been profile souvenirs for the last two Leap Years? Thanks. Quote Link to comment
+Isonzo Karst Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Am I right in thinking that there have been profile souvenirs for the last two Leap Years? There was one for Feb 29 2012. There were no souvenirs in 2000, 2004, 2008. (IE, there really weren't souvenirs on the site at all...) Souvenir for Feb 29, 2016 has not been announced as yet, as far as I know. Seems likely.

Why don't you host an event anyway, regardless of a souvenir? I've hosted 16 events so far and plan to host many more. The souvenir won't affect whether I host an event, but it will affect whether I host it that particular day or not. Hence why my post asked about the souvenir and not about event hosting.

RuideAlmeida Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 I wonder what makes a Leap Day, different than other... so I guess that the same Souvenir from 2012 could be granted again next year, in 2020, 2024, etc. Quote Link to comment

February 2000 would have been interesting given there were no geocaches hidden before May. I can go either way personally. Quote Link to comment

RuideAlmeida Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Well for starters it only occurs every 4 years... Of course the correct reading would be "... what makes a Leap Day, different than other Leap Day." Quote Link to comment
+Harry Dolphin Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 My prize will be filling in my calendar grid...it'll be the last spot for me to fill. That's what I told myself in 2012. Hee hee hee. I don't drive after dark, so I headed out at 7 AM for an LPC cache in a shopping center nearby. Not a great cache, but it did fill the 366 days found. Guess I might try it again for another souvenir. Guess that's what I save these LPCs in shopping centers for? Of course, that depends on whether I get the weekly notifications, or not. They seem sporadic. Quote Link to comment
