Are you up to the Challenge?
Come join us for the Fourth Annual Georgia
Geocachers Association Challenge Event! This year's Challenge is
likely to be the best ever! We've a new location, acres and acres
of good caching area (to include hydrocaching areas) and a
motivated, experienced, and crafty crew!
The Challenge is being held this year at
Dauset
Trails Nature Center near Jackson, Georgia on October 8th.
There will be food, camaraderie, fun, games, and of course, caches!
We will be playing a variation of Scrabble® Scramble
that will test your caching and spelling skills.
Cost per GPSr will be $10.00 to
offset the cost of food, drink and sundry. Please post a note or
"will attend" and let us know if you intend to participate and
how many people will be in your party.

pop-ups or RVs. Facilities include hot and cold running water and a
primitive shower at the shelter. If you're interested in camping at
the event location, please contact Rebel.
If your camping style requires a pop-up or RV,
Indian Springs State Park is right nearby.
This will be a day of good fun, good food,
and good caches. Mark your calendars as you won't want to miss this
one!
Small added note: To facilitate loading cache
coords into GPSrs that have a dataport we plan to have a laptop
available with the coords loaded as an EasyGPS file. You should
bring your own data cable, though, as we may not have one for your
GPS.
