Geocache Description:

This is a cache in a series based on the book series The Hunger Games.

“In the ruins of a place once known as North America lies the nation of Panem, a shining Capitol surrounded by twelve outlying districts. The Capitol is harsh and cruel and keeps the districts in line by forcing them all to send one boy and one girl between the ages of twelve and eighteen to participate in the annual Hunger Games, a fight to the death on live TV. Sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen, who lives alone with her mother and younger sister, regards it as a death sentence when she is forced to represent her district in the Games.”  -from Amazon.com

Katniss Everdeen volunteers as tribute when her younger sister’s name is chosen for the Hunger Games.   She comes from District 12 which is the poorest of the districts.  Her father was killed in a coal mining accident, and she is forced to provide for her mother and sister by hunting and trading illegally.  She becomes adept with a bow and arrow.  She becomes known as the girl on fire.

This cache has been started off with some cool Hunger Games swag.
