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 

Rue is the girl tribute from District 11.  She forms an alliance with Katniss during the Games.  Katniss was drawn to her because of her small stature and her ability to climb even the tallest trees.  Back in District 11, she worked in the orchards and would climb high in the trees at the end of the day and sing a special song to let the others know it was time to go home.

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