Educating our Youth
This Cache is designed to educate our youth about new technology. Please bring a student along and let him or her use a GPS in finding this cache. In the log tells us how they used the GPS to find this and other caches.
It is also important to educate students about Trackables and how they can understand the themes each presents and follow the travels for each one.
1) What is GPS?
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a space-based global navigation satellite system that provides reliable location and time information in all weather and at all times and anywhere on or near the Earth when and where there is an unobstructed line of sight to four or more GPS satellites.
2) Who uses it?
While originally a military project, GPS is considered a dual-use technology, meaning it has significant military and civilian applications.

GPS has become a widely used and useful tool for commerce, scientific uses, tracking and surveillance. GPS's accurate timing facilitates everyday activities such as banking, mobile phone operations, and even the control of power grids. Farmers, surveyors, geologists and countless others perform their work more efficiently, safely, economically, and accurately
