EVENT SCHEDULE 8:00 - 9:00 AM Registration/GPS Loading
  • Register - get your prize drawing tickets and meet with caching friends for good conversation. Trade your stories, tags and trackable items. Raffle tickets for cool stuff will be available also. Each geocaching team will receive one free event tag during registration!
  • GPS Loading - We will begin the process of loading your GPS with all of the new unpublished geocaches. (One GPS per person max.) There will be at least 40 new geocaches to add to the more than 100 existing Genesee County Park geocaches!  There will be a shotgun start at 9:00 AM for those wishing to go after FTFs.  If you would like us to preload your GPS prior to 9:00 AM we will hold onto your GPS til that time.
9:00 AM - 5:00 PM Geocache Hunting - Time to hit the parks and find as many caches as you can! Most of the new geocaches will be concentrated near the northeast part of the county. We have decided to hide these new caches Belle Isle Style - near current geocaches that we had hidden for previous events. The old geocaches will be archived and the new ones will be published after the parks close for the evening.

5:00 PM - 5:45 PM Dinner Time

5:45 PM Prize Drawings - Our sponsors have donated lots of cool prizes! Have your winning ticket ready!  **Prize table donations accepted at the event.

6:30 PM Geocache Hunting - There's still plenty of daylight. Go find a few more geocaches - if you're up to it!
