Event Topics:
Letterboxing & Earthcaches
We invite everyone to come out and join us for the May MTGC
Meeting. There will be discussions of Earthcaches and Letterboxes
with guest speakers on both topics.
The Middle Tennessee Geocachers' Club is a great way to meet
other geocachers, get questions answered and tell your tales of the
hunt. All cachers, new and old, are welcome to attend.
Just a little infomation you may be interested in.
Letterbox Hybrid
A letterbox is another form of treasure hunting using clues
instead of coordinates. In some cases, however, a letterbox has
coordinates, and the owner has made it a letterbox and a geocache.
To read more about letterboxing, visit the Letterboxing North America web site.
Earthcache
An Earthcache is a special place that people can visit to learn
about a unique geoscience feature or aspect of our Earth.
Earthcaches include a set of educational notes and the details
about where to find the location (latitude and longitude). Visitors
to Earthcaches can see how our planet has been shaped by geological
processes, how we manage the resources and how scientists gather
evidence to learn about the Earth. For more information about
Earthcaches, visit www.earthcache.org.
