Venturers Traditional Cache

***Note slight coord change (N 53° 46.738 W 001° 54.357) and clue 27/09/2009 *****

The four caches Woodchips, Elfins, Pioneers, and Venturers give visitors an alternative way to access the Ogden Water area which has 8 further caches. Park in the car park next to Denholme Velvets Mill and avoid the crush in the one next to the visitor centre.

The four caches in this series were created for an Introduction to Geocaching session for the local Woodcraft Folk.

The Woodcraft Folk was established as an educational movement and charity in 1925, for children and young people – both girls and boys - designed to develop self-confidence and activity in society, with the aim of building a world based on equality, peace, social justice and co-operation.

Woodcraft Folk groups meet weekly, enjoying a varied programme including games, drama, discussion, projects, crafts, singing and dancing, as well as following an educational programme based on awareness of issues both local and global.

Group nights usually last between one and two hours, depending on the age of the children or young people. We divide our groups by age:

Under sixes are known as 'Woodchips'

Six to nine year olds are known as 'Elfins'

Ten to twelve year olds are 'Pioneers'

Thirteen to fifteen year olds are'Venturers'
