Geocache Description:

The WWFM (World Wide Flash Mob) event will start at exactly: 10:00 AM and end at 10:15 AM on Saturday June 7th, 2014. The Hawaiian Funeral will start during the end of/ or right after the WWFM event. For both events, come dressed in your nice Hawaiian outfits.

WWFM
Come and join us for a short meet & greet. The WWFM started 10 years ago which is an event that gathers group of geocachers (and their family and/or friends) for a common purpose. To have a small meet and greet in many cities all over the world at the same time.

Flash mobs are mini-happenings: a group of people suddenly appears in public, performs some brief action, then disperses. The concept was developed in a series of short stories by science fiction author Larry Niven, who called it a "flash crowd". The term "flash mob" is over one hundred years old, but it was first used in its current meaning in 2003, when over 100 people suddenly appeared in the home furnishings department of Macy's in Manhattan and gathered around an expensive rug.

In geocaching, the WWFM is a mini-event. Gather at the appointed time, sign the log sheet, chat for a bit. You will get to meet geocachers that you never met.
The WWFM will be hosted by (Me) Teckman25 and Pattymack

HAWAIIAN FUNERAL
In accent Hawaiian traditions, when a King died, an honorary person was chosen to take the King's remains to a remote part of the islands and burry them. The person then, went to another part of the islands and Killed them self so the knowledge of where the king's body was buried would never be known.

I have a cache here at these coordinates, where we will be standing called, "Islands' Forest", (visit link)
that on the day of this event will killed off. Yes that means Archived. The cache will still be in place until the end of the WWFM event.
For this part of the event, If you have not found this cache yet, I am going to give you one last chance to find it before it is killed off! Instead of us burring the cache and Killing ourselves like it was done in old Hawaiian ways, I thought we would say goodbyes (during the WWFM and say our final words) to this cache and I would hide one, two, or more near by. The coordinates for these caches would be handed out at the event. We would then, drive like in a Funeral procession to each cache. Then everyone who attended my event would get FTF on the caches. The caches would be set to be published later in a day after everyone that attended my event had a chance to find the caches. (Easy FTF(s) guaranteed) If you are not a premium member, this is your chance for FTF(s) without paying the premium membership!
Like I stated above, in honor of the Hawaiian tradition of this Funeral, Please dress in Hawaiian clothing. It should be nice Hawaiian clothes, but it can be casual Hawaiian clothing if you do not have any nice hawaiian clothes. [you can always barrow some :)]

The Hawaiian Funeral will be hosted by just me, Teckman25!
