PRIME TIME SHOW SEEKING GEOCACHING/TREASURE HUNTING FAMILIES! *20K*

Greetings ~

My name is Julia Jenkins and I am a casting producer for ABC families hit reality show 'Wife Swap.' We are currently casting for our fourth season and we are looking for FAMILIES THAT HAVE A PASSION FOR GEOCACHING/TREASURE HUNTING. We want to feature a family that lives and breathes adventure.

Families that appear on the show receive $20,000 as a thank you. And if you refer a family that appears on the show you would receive $1000.

The premise of Wife Swap is simple: for seven days, two wives from two different families with very different values exchange husbands, children and lives (but not bedrooms) to discover what it's like to live a different family's life. It's a fun social experiment and a great way to see your family in a whole new light.

Here at 'Wife Swap' we look for a two-parent home with at least one child between the ages of 6 and 17 living at home full time.

If you are interested, please email me and tell me a little about your family and then I will be in touch. Or if you would like to refer a family, please email me their contact information and I will be in touch.

Thanks!

My wife got a letter last year but it wasn't related to geocaching. I didn't swap my wife although sometimes a guy feels tempted.. Rolling Eyes

I got the e-mail and marked it as spam.

Well, being that she has a MySpace profile, I really know to disregard anything she has to say.

We got a similar email about a year ago on the IGO email address. They wanted us to recommend a member who might be interested in swapping. We passed....apparently so has everyone else they contacted.

OK much as I like the idea of being a family that "lives and breathes ADVENTURE" -- do they understand we are talking about finding tupperware int he woods, occasionally preceded by solving a Sudoku? Laughing

Raina just turned 5. They're looking for kids between the ages of 6 and 17 and I'd say Raina probably doesn't do that many caches, at least according to her dad.

You wouldn’t think there is enough drama in the geocaching world for a show like that to be interested in us. Laughing
