Second that one Chris. As the couple (+1) that are responsible for us having a place to log on and call home www.nwogeocachers.com, It's about time we get to hear their story. Shroom and Jen have done wonders for the Thunder Bay caching community. As far as Nathan, well I'll listen to his story, but probably won't understand, similar to puzzle caches.

I agree totally.  I think this one should be a no-brainer!  Shroom and Jenn have done a great deal to promote caching in TB, and I think it's time they are recognized for their efforts.  Do we really have to vote on this one?

 :D I concur. 
That geomonopoly game has kept so many of us entertained this summer plus all the effort that goes into Spring Challenge and coin design and this website which keeps all of us other geocachers informed and amused.

Add me to the list for Shroom and Jenn.

I am glad to see that the better half was added to the group, since without them and their understanding you would not be out geocaching.  Of course it is always better to bring them along to help find the caches

 :) Absolutely the right choice... although, I believe we may want to hear more from Jenn rather than Shroom for a more "truthful" write up.

So no need to vote... will make caches instead!!!

PS - Did you ever come up with a CacheName for Nathan?
I cache, therefore, I am.

I'm new to the forums but since Shroom has given me such helpful advice, they have my vote!

Thanks everyone. Jenn and I have answered the standard questions. I usually throw in a question or two specifically for the cacher being "interviewed," tailored to them. If you've got a question for us you'd like to ask, let's here it, and we'll try to answer.

 I realize you have answered the usual questions, but this one is geared more toward the nwo geocachers site itself, You and Jenn's biggest boost to caching community in Thunder Bay, and surrounding area, which is much appreciated. Is this a home based server, with monthly fees,  or is it a hosted domain with limited band width ? Or is it based out of L.U's servers ? Seem's some templated script is being used, but that's not a bad thing.

 We just find this site a big plus to the North Western Ontario area, geocaching wise, and I am sure everyone else finds it useful as a resource for local caching info. And of course with new members logging on it will only get bigger and better, and that's a good thing. You are both doing an excellent job. Tell us about the birth and life of the NWO site.
