July 2014: Glow Is Back!

In July 2014 glow is back! Last year our international community expressed a desire for Glow earlier in the year due to their shipping times - so here we go! This opportunity allows you to add one of 11 great glow colors to your design at no additional cost! The use of glow relies heavily on your design parameters. Wide open spaces (like a big moon) will work much better than small spots (like eyes). If we are unable to accommodate glow in your design you will be notified when your blueprint is posted.

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."

"Our first tag, and I am VERY impressed by the quality. My daughter and I share the initials KFE, so that has become our caching signature. When I found the Pathtags website I knew then and there I HAD to make a KFE Pathtag. It is something we will cherish forever and share with our caching friends abroad."

"We just received our first tag and it is amazing :) Our initial collection has almost tripled since we got our tag and started trading. We are hooked."

jusojara

"When I found my first Pathtag in a cache I didn't know what it was, but soon found out by going to pathtags.com. After seeing the amazing tags produced, I decided to have my own made, and your production staff did an amazing job with all the detail. I am so pleased with the final Pathtag. I know this will not be my only Pathtag."

DoubleTrouble

"I just received my first Pathtag. These look great!! They exceeded my expectations. I am very pleased with the end product, and will now set about designing more tags."

Team_J

"My very first Pathtags just arrived, and wow, are they great! I used my own artwork, and your blueprinters rendered it so well; the Pathtag turned out beautifully. Now I've got to start sending it out to all the people who traded with me. Best of all, I got them in time for this weekend--I'll have a Pathtag to drop in my 100th cache!"

Quossum

"I love the special enamels that are available, and really like how our Stormtrooper Halloween tag turned out using them! Our tag has both translucent and glow colors. The translucent colors really add depth to the tag design, and they can be added at any time. The glow colors are a fun element... just shine a light on them and then turn out the lights. Very cool!"

Imperial Walkers

"With the closing of our Fire Department we looked at Pathtags.com as a way for our firefighters keep a small piece of history with them. The detail on this tag is some of the best I have seen. It has prompted us to look at a series related to the changes we had had over the past 54 years."

NeroJustice

"Just letting you know that my pathtags arrived safely and I am over the moon with them. Being an Australian I felt that my first should be an Australian icon and I love how it has turned out and everyone I have shown it to has loved it. Thank you."

Mundoo

"We just received our first pathtag, I must say we are very happy indeed. The detail is amazing. Our design came about from a road way sign, discovered while away on the October long weekend event (We didn't start the fire) and a big thank you goes out to The Parrots for help with the design."

Leanne Burton

"Really nice work. The coin is heavy and full of colors. Worth the money!"
