Ahh thank you so much! I appreciate you guys tracking down this info. Sorry for
the delay in getting back. Pretty cool that a local SLAGA member was in the
lead back then.
Thanks again,

CCCooperAgency is correct. That means Bruce was the second in the nation to
log 1000 finds and the first to do it alone with no other assistance. There
you go Ethan, everything you wanted to know.
Ethan!
Hello Ethan!

Is CCCooper Agency who you mean? It *looks* like CCCooperAgency logged #1,000
around 2002.05.29.

I talked to Rich, and he said that Bruce's only competition in the country at
that time was CC Cooper. They would be battling back and forth for number of
finds. So it may be possible that Bruce was first in the nation to 1000
finds. He was not first to 5000 because he quit caching at 4999 finds because
CC Cooper was a team that the wife would log finds and the husband would log
finds the same day in different states. The only way to find out would be to
count CC Coopers finds to see when they made it to 1000 finds. Good luck with
that Ethan!

I'm sure he was the first for 1000 but I'm not sure about 5000. If I remember
correctly we had the cache hunt and then we had a fire with hot dogs and hot
chocolate but don't quote me on that. I think the park was West Tyson. I
think Strider was with us.

The only ones that would know for sure, besides Bruce himself, would be Glenn
or Rich. What is printed in the SLAGA History is that Bruce S. was the first
SLAGA member to reach both of those milestones. I'm not sure about the first
with Groundspeak.

Hello Slaga,
I am working on building a challenge cache and I want to include some
history for the cache page. Does anyone know if BruceS was the first to
reach 1000 finds? What about 5000?
