Geocaching and postcards go hand in hand.<\/p>\n
We all know the joy of opening a container\u2014whether that be a mailbox or a geocache\u2014and discovering something unexpected hidden inside. What\u2019s even better is getting the chance to meet people from around the world that share the same excitement. Both postcards and geocaches connect us to our community and make the world that we explore feel just a little bit closer.<\/p>\n
Did you know that there\u2019s an official day to celebrate postcards? October 1 is World Postcard Day<\/a>! This day began in 2019 to mark the 150th anniversary of the postcard. Every year, postcard enthusiasts meet up to celebrate the occasion, even making special postcards and stamps!<\/p>\n World Postcard Day 2024 is coming up and we\u2019re excited to announce a new souvenir to mark the occasion! Celebrate with us by posting an Attended log on any Event from September 29 to October 5, 2024<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Remember, geocaching Events need to be submitted at least two weeks before the Event date.<\/p>\n Keep an eye on the Geocaching Blog for World Postcard Day inspiration and downloadable templates to print a geocaching postcard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Geocaching and postcards go hand in hand.
