CITO 2016 Semi Custom Trackable GeoMedal Group Project
This Group Project Has Finished
The details remain here for reference.
To view the participant designs, visit the gallery.


Every spring CITO events take place as geocachers clean up parks and natural areas to welcome the return of warm weather. This year there are two CITO weeks, the first being from April 16 to 24.

I.B. Geocaching Supplies is organizing a Group GeoMedal Geocoin project for CITO hosts wishing to have a custom trackable for their event. Due to the tight timeline to complete this project and make sure event hosts have their trackables before CITO week, this project is being restricted to Canadian participants. Apologies to our American and International customers. If this group project goes well it will be repeated in the fall with an earlier start date to allow wider participation.

What is a GeoMedal? It is metal and trackable like a geocoin, but the design is laser engraved like a wooden nickel. They are typically 2" to 2.5" in size and you can see examples of the GeoMedals we carry in our GeoMedal section.

The images show a mockup of how the design will look; I hope to have pictures of actual samples before March 25. Please note this design may be reused in the fall if another group project is run. They are 2.5" in diameter with cutouts around the central circle and a hole in the outer ring at the top allows for easy attachment to an object to travel. The available finish colours are antique gold, antique silver, and antique bronze.

The tracking numbers will have a CA prefix, share a common name (e.g. "Canadian 2016 CITO Event GeoMedal"), and use the event icon.

Customization
The text "2016 CITO Events" on the back will be replaced with the name of your event. Be sure to specify your event name in the comments box when ordering, as well as how many coins you want in each finish.

If you wish to have a completely custom design on the back (for example, with your geocaching group's logo) that is possible. Please contact us for pricing details. Your design must be in EPS format for engraving, and it will be submitted to Groundspeak for approval before it can be confirmed for use.

Cost and Order Size
The minimum order size is 5 coins. The pricing table below shows the coin cost for different size orders and includes the tracking number. You may order any combination of the three finishes; please state how many of each you want in the comments field when you order.
