Come Join us for some stargazing on the dam at Raccoon State Park at 7pm on November 7th, 2013 to earn your Geocaching in Space Souvenir!. Feel free to bring lawn chairs or blankets and some snacks to share! Keep all lights to a minimal to aid in night vision.
Geocaching is heading towards the International Space Station (ISS). All of geocaching? No, not all of it, but a very special little Travel Bug® named TB5JJN1 is tagging along with Nasa astronaut Rick Mastracchio on his mission to the ISS. Mastracchio will be using the Travel Bug as an educational tool to help teach students around the world about geography and geocaching. Mastraccio will Rocket into Space on November 7, 2013 (GMT). Every geocacher who attends a Geocaching Event on November 6 or 7, 2013 will be awarded a "Geocaching in Space" souvenir.
This event is being held after normal park hours with the permission of Raccoon State Park.
