Walton Robotics FIRST Team 2974 Pathtag

FIRST is a nonprofit organization founded by famed inventor Dean Kamen to promote Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) careers among young people. The vehicle for making this happen is a program of competitive robotics tournaments for children as young as Kindergarten through high school.

In 2013, Walton Robotics Team 2974 decided to do something special to leave a lasting impression on the people they "crossed paths with" at their competition. They created a Pathtag to give to other attendees!

Lisa Malice, one of the team's mentors, said "The pathtags were a big hit with the students because it was a unique give-away and because of the creative approach to spreading our message. Geocachers I met loved it, but the muggle families I talked with were really intrigued! We are starting to see log ins pop up on our tag map, including the ones I sent to Australia and Oregon to collectors who agreed to place them in geocaches."

"The weeks prior to receiving my tags went by far too slowly, but when they arrived I realized they were definitely worth waiting for! They are even better than I'd anticipated! Thank you so much for the time and care you put into them, as well as for answering my questions. "

"we got our 1st pathtags a couple weeks ago and are very happy with how beautiful they look, they've been trading fast and I had to order more today...this is so much fun and so addictive...already planning my next design...Hosta Hillbillys"

Hosta Hillbillys

"Once we decided to make our first Pathtag, I couldn't submit the design quickly enough. We were so excited to have our own personal Pathtag signature item. We definitely weren't disappointed, and were amazed how fantastic the tag turned out! I am looking forward to making another tag soon. These little guys are sooooo addictive! :-)"

Imperial Walkers

"ROCKY GLEN GROMMETS received their first of two tags in the mail today and they are wicked! Midnightgothicangel has done an amazing job - so good in fact that we've just ordered another 4 designs she's created for us. The Groms are going to be SO excited when they get home from school. Bob Grom is a member of our family at RGG (we picked him up out of a cache on the Eyre Peninsula (Australia))"

"Hi I received my tags today, very happy with how they turned out, a little better than i thought they were going to, seems others like them too as I am receiving a lot of trade requests, almost no tags left lol May have to order a refill soon ;) many thanks!!"

NeoCult

"I love my pathtags! They are even better than I expected. The colors are clear, bright and the picture is just what I wanted!"

geonana

"This is my first tag and when it came I was very happy with the quality and craftmenship. I made the lettering a little small but the detail still makes it readable. The pathtag community is also one of the helpful and kind group I have ever run across. THANKS to all of the pathtag folks and community "

Pandamandium

"I received an invitation to join the "Bird Club" I chose the Eastern Wild Turkey as my bird of choice because of my passion of hunting them. This tag looks absolutely great. The blueprint didn't do the tag itself any justice. The first day alone I traded 13 of these to other bird club members. Thanks for producing such high quality tags for us. T-Hunter Continental, OH"

"I received my first pathtags "Hiking the U.S." today and I love them thank you very much and thanks to Jennifer at Wicks Works Designs for all her help. I'm sure I'll be ordering future designs. Pathtags are a great way to expand the geocaching fun."

HOOAH!!

"I started geocaching only about 4 1/2 months ago, and went to my first event when I only had 2 finds under my belt. I met a lot of nice people there, one of whom had brought his collection of over 300 pathtags. Of course I was curious about these little pieces of art, and asked to take a look at his collection. Right then, I just knew that I had to have my own! Later the same evening, I was given a signature tag by the tag's owner, and that only confirmed my desire to get my own! I resisted the temptation to hastily design my pathtag, but within 2 months I had placed an order. The blueprint confirmation process was a bit problematic for me, but now that my tags are here, I am absolutely thrilled with them! I'm so proud of the way they turned out, and am enjoying face-to-face trading with geocaching friends, and a little bit of trading through the mail so far. I can tell already that I will have to come up another design or 2 (or 3, or 4...)!"
