Geocache Description:

Celebrate the joys of geocaching and join us for an afternoon of fun and friendship on the Sunshine Coast.

.
We will host this event at Dunethin Rock Scout Camp and Water Activities Centre on the Maroochy River. Dunethin Rock is situated in a tranquil, peaceful setting adjacent to Lake Dunethin and the Maroochy River. Address : 4 Lake Dunethin Road, Maroochy River  4561
 The afternoon will kick off at 2pm. For those among us who enjoy camping, you have the option of arriving Friday and staying until Sunday afternoon. Camping costs are $8.50 per person per night (no power). Facilities are well maintained. Geocachers will have exclusive use of the Camp Grounds for this weekend. Please advise in your log if you intend on camping in tents or are bringing a camper etc so that we can allot spaces. Motor homes, caravans and camper trailers are all welcome.
For those attending only the afternoon event, we are requesting a gold coin donation to cover the day use fees if you are able. There are no shops nearby so please bring everything you need with you. There will be some Lucky Draws and a FTF Draw as well shortly after arrival. Information for campers. Campers will have access to the main hall and kitchen. This will mean that you can spend less time packing and setting up and more time caching. The kitchen has a microwave, oven, jug, crockery, cutlery and a coldroom. The main hall has tables and chairs. Canoes can be hired on Saturday and Sunday morning. Fees are $10.00 per half day per canoe and $20.00 per full day per canoe. If you team up you can fit two people in a canoe and split the cost. We have published our first four terrain 5 caches on the river and hope to add to that before the Event. Looking forward to seeing everyone!

 
HOW TO GET TO
DUNETHIN ROCK SCOUT CAMP
    Travel via Bruce Highway, turn off at the Yandina exit and take the first turn left into Vee Road, and left again onto the Yandina-Bli Bli Road.  Follow this road for approximately 5 kms.  At the end of the long straight stretch, turn left in Pearce Drive (gravel road) turning left again into Lake Dunethin Road.  Please enter Dunethin Rock Scout Camp through the second gateway.
     Alternatively, from the south, you can exit at the Nambour Connection Road passing by the Big Pineapple, traveling through Nambour and turning right at the Yandina Caravan Park into Wharf Street.  This leads on to become the Yandina-Bli Bli Road with the same instructions as above. 
     You may also take the Nambour-Bli Bli Road exit traveling east and turning left after the Bli Bli State School into Willis Road and Thomas Road.  Dunethin Rock Scout Camp signs can be found on the Yandina-Bli Bli Road.  Turn right into Pearce Drive and proceed down the hill and turn right into Lake Dunethin Road.  Dunethin Rock Road is a very narrow gravel road.
