Join us from 2:00 to 2;30 for a great afternoon with other geocachers at the beautiful Lewisville Park just north of Battle Ground. At the event more details will be provided for those wanting to qualify to receive the Battle Ground Geocoin. There are a limited number of trackable Battle Ground Geocoins that will be available to those that complete the challenge, so by attending this event, you will greatly improve your chance to earn the coin. There are many caches placed in and around Battle Ground and if you log a total of 10 of the caches, you can earn a 2015 Battle Ground Chamber of Commerce Geocoin. We had an awesome turnout last year and hope to keep with the standards for this year. We are planning on having several new caches published around this date around the theme of "Forever in Bloom" to enhance your caching pleasure. There will be a group photo around 2:15 and a chance to visit with cachers from near and far. Last year we had cachers from as far away as the other Washington (DC) at the event.
Come early and stay late at this bucolic setting. There are hiking trails, play areas for the kids, and even a tennis court and softball fields - enjoy all that this popular park has to offer. We may have some special guests, keep this page on your watch list for more details.
Come for a fun-filled Harvest Days weekend and enjoy some great caching in and around Battle Ground!
