MI Fall Gathering F.A.Q.
It’s nearly here! The MI Fall Gathering is only a little over 2 weeks away. Boxes are arriving at my doorstep daily and the first batch will be planted this weekend — let me tell you… if you’re planning to attend the gathering, you are definitely in for a treat because there are some really awesome letterboxes here!
I’ve been getting an assortment of questions about a variety of things, ranging from letterboxes to tickets to food to the “cake walk” game. Since the format of this year’s gathering is a little different, based on the County Fair theme, I’ve collected the questions and compiled a F.A.Q. that will hopefully give you all of the info you need!

A Letterboxer’s County Fair
Plans are coming along nicely for the MI Fall Gathering. The location has been finalized and this year we will be back at Pigeon Creek County Park in West Olive, MI. I was a little hesitant about going back to the same place another year, but it’s hard to beat the great enclosed lodge and wonderful trails. But just because this year’s event is in the same location as last year’s event, don’t think it will be the same ‘ol thing!
The year’s event theme is “A County Fair” and it promises to provide lots of old-fashioned family fun with themed boxes, food and activities. In addition to purchasing clues with tickets, attendees will have the option of participating in a variation on the cakewalk game, a traditional carnival favorite.
Although we are working hard to develop the carnival theme and atmosphere, in keeping with the tradition of the MI Fall Gathering, the day will be for the most part unstructured. With the exception of an early-morning group activity and the noon potluck, the rest of the day is open, leaving plenty of time for exchanges, socializing and hitting the trails in search of the event boxes.
Complete event details are available at AtlasQuest. Stay tuned for clues and information on how to earn extra tickets…
