MORNING BREAKFAST/ MEET AND GREET EVENT
- 8:00 until 10:00 AM


The coordinates given above are for the Waukesha Schuetze Recreation Center located along the Fox River. This is the hub of the city's JanBoree events this morning. During the time of our gathering the Pancake Breakfast will be in full swing.

As you enter the building, turn to the right, we will be in the room at the end of the hallway. We will not be set up in the main room with the Pancake breakfast but you are welcome to purchase your meal and bring it into our room. (Meal purchases are not required.)

Come meet other Geocachers, share your geocaching stories, trade travel bugs and share your special geocoins here! Geocoin trades are also welcome. If you do not like winter geocaching, you are most welcome to come and say hello! The Schuetze Recreation Center is wheelchair accessible, weather permitting.


GEOCACHING 101 PRESENTATION

9:00-10:00 AM - Join AuntieNae for a presentation to learn the basics needed to enjoy this eco-friendly sport including suggested equipment, the website, how to search for a cache and types of caches. You will enjoy the thrill of the hunt but the real discovery is the countless locations of natural beauty and historical interest you will find that you never knew existed. Families are encouraged to participate. THIS IS A PRESENTATION ONLY, NO HANDS ON.


GEOKIDS ACTIVITIES

9:00-10:00 AM - GeoKids and their parents can join GR8 EYES in a series of GeoKid friendly activities including making their own tradie bag, how to use a compass, geocaching etiquette and more. (Please indicate number of children on your will attend so we have enough supplies.)

We do need to leave this location by 10:30 AM to allow for set up for the group using the room at 12 noon so join us later at .. .
