GeocacheAlaska! has been selected to judge the finalists in Groundspeak's 2014 Geocaching International Film Festival (GIFF) this year. We are one of a few select geocaching organizations from around the world that will be participating in this. After the film submission deadline of July 7th, Groundspeak staff will cull the entries down to a list of finalists. They will send the finalist videos to us and we are going to have a viewing event on the evening of July 22 at the BP Energy Center in Anchorage from 6:30pm to 9:00pm. Everyone who shows up will get to participate in rating each video and then voting on the winners of a half dozen award categories. The results of our secret ballot will be sent to Groundspeak and combined with the votes from the other organizations. Winners will be announced at the end of the GIFF event in Seattle on August 15. You can view the GIFF Event at coord.info/GC51KH2 and the bigger Block Party at coord.info/GC4CPG0. You can view the 2013 GIFF finalists at vimeo.com/channels/729456And you'll be able to view the 2014 GIFF finalists if you plan to attend this event!!! Stay tuned for details as the planning is still in the early stages.

This action has been made possible thanks in large part to our Event Chairman Dana Rosso taking time to seek out Groundspeak's Director of Community Outreach during a recent (vacation) visit to the Center of the Universe (also known as Fremont - a lovely Seattle neighborhood north of Queen Anne Hill). Point being - our board members can be found 'selling' the virtues of GeocacheAlaska! Inc. in ways which produce wonderful results for all involved. This is an exciting opportunity for our members - stay tuned for more!
