The Iowa DNR and staff at Lake Wapello, the Wapello County and Surrounding Area Geocaching Organization, AKA WACkOSAGO would like to invite you to Lake Wapello for a day of non-competitive caching and friendship. The posted coordinates will lead you to the restaurant where you will register and have the caches loaded to your GPS. Please bring your cables. Registration will make you eligible for prize drawings later in the day.

This building is handicap accessible and will be open all day as an event headquarters and the only meal available will be lunch.

8:30am Registration & cache loading 11:30am - 1:00pm Lunch at the restaurant 3:30pm Prize drawings at the restaurant. Prizes are for anyone 12 and up.

Lake Wapello features 80 campsites, 42 with electricity and 14 cabins. Both cabins and campsites may be reserved by going to reserve Iowa

We plan to have well over 100 temp's , a logger cache, and 12 new permanent caches (maybe even an Earth Cache). There are 150+ caches in the Ottumwa / Wapello County area. Due to the success of the kids "Treasure Trail" it will be back this year atleast 50% bigger than last year. We are also planning 2 night caches and (5 other night only caches that you will have to find without being given the starting point or coord's.) This could get real interesting. Hope it goes well for you.

Check back later for cache totals.

Lunch will be available:

Pulled Pork Sandwiches $2.00

Chips .50

Pop.50

Water .50

Brownies .75

Rice Krispie Treats .75
