The Charlotte Checkers are having a contest to name fan of the year. The prizes are awesome and I would love to win. All I have to do is write an essay of 200 words or less answering the question: “If you were talking to someone that had never been to a Checkers game before, what would you tell them to get them to join you?” After blogging a few of my ideas I submitted one,  This is my follow up.

Finding history through geocaching

Not a hint for caches mentioned

It’s been a while since I’ve done some “good” geocaching.  No lamp posts, no guardrails, nothing with a rating of 1/1.  (Overall difficulty / terrain difficulty)  Nothing too urban that involves park and rides, bus stops, or parking lots.  I haven’t been in the woods in a while or done a good multi-cache.  Well today I broke that dry spell.  I found an awesome series of caches that took me all around uptown Charlotte introducing me to different parks and monuments that honor our veterans.

All I have to do is write an essay of 200 words or less answering the question: “If you were talking to someone that had never been to a Checkers game before, what would you tell them to get them to join you?” Not so hard at face value. The problem is I have so many different ways to go about this. Do I take a marketing approach or try to be clever and write out my answer in the form of a script? Maybe I try to get artsy or perhaps I just talk about why the Checkers are the best team in town. Over the next couple posts I will be exploring a few of these different ideas that are rolling around in my head and taking any advice people want to give. Hopefully one of these stands out and gives me the win.

It’s official.  My brain will never shut off.  Even in an extremely relaxed state while getting a massage my brain was churning out random thoughts.  I just couldn’t stop it.  The more I tried to make it stop, the more randomness it would invent.  It’s kind of frustrating, but yet kind of fun and funny.  Here are some of the thoughts I can remember from my hour long rub down.
