Geocache Description:

6th Grade Science Fair Project.....Medium sized ammo can containing several trade items. Located in a potentially busy area so use stealth.

The project is done but the cache lives on!

The Science Fair was a cache hidden as part of my 6th grade science fair project. I was trying to find out who caches. Are cachers individuals or groups? Are there more men or women that cache? Are there more families that cache than teams of cachers? These are the questions I was trying to answer.

My project was due on December 1, 2010 so I have added updates below.
Thanks to everyone who participated in the survey and helped me out.

*************UPDATE********************11/28/10
The results are in. Out of the 64 finds that were logged during the 6 month study period, families were represented most with 51.6% of the logs. Men made up 26.5%, and women 21.9%of the logged finds.

Thanks again to everyone who helped in my project. Whether it was logging your find, taking a picture, or leaving extra notes, it all helped alot. I'll post again later to let you know how I did in the science fair.
