December - Festivus Celebration @ The Deli Event Cache

This cache has been archived.

lpyankeefan: Time to put this event to rest. Final page edits have been done and all travelers have been moved along. Many thanks to those who attended. I'm thinking we'll have another one of these next year. The fruitcake has already been safely packed away and the pole tucked away in the back of a closet.

Happy Festivus Friends!!!

Geocache Description:



Festivus is a relatively new holiday that is still developing tradition. The most common elements are the Festivus Pole, Festivus Feast, Festivus Fruitcake, Airing of Grievances and the Feats of Strength.

Most Festivus celebrations today involve a party with a feast. The feast can consist of whatever the party holders decide, as there is no standard meal (e.g. turkey at Thanksgiving). For decorations there is an aluminum pole that is set up like a Christmas tree. Other decorations include lights and other festive decorations. A Festivus Fruitcake is on display for all to view but not eat! It is kept from year to year as a display.

That being said, please join me in celebrating Festivus at one of the closest thing to New York that we have, and one that Jerry, Elaine, George and Kramer would enjoy!

Who:
