Geocache Description:

Please join us at Caribou/Munroes Island  Provincial Park Day Use Area from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. on July 18, 2015 to celebrate Parks Day. The main idea is to show the general public how to geocache and how to use GPS units. If you haven't already tried the NS Park passport caches, there will be some paper passports on hand, along with some friendly helpers to get you started.

The event itself is wheelchair accessible but the caches are not.

Learn the many uses of GPS units, how to use them and have fun.  The afternoon will involve a treasure hunt for multiple geocaches for your family or yourself to find.  You are welcome to bring your own GPS unit to learn to use (you  must be able to enter coordinates).  A limited number of GPS's can be provided.   Children must be accompanied by an adult. We will meet by the playground at the shelter in the park. Dress for weather conditions.  You will be walking in a wooded area, so wear appropriate footwear.  Bring hat, sunscreen, insect repellent and a GPS unit if you have one. If you have any questions, you can call the park directly at (902) 485-6134.  Sponsored by the NS Department of Natural Resources. The Park is located 11 km (7 mi.) north of the junctions of Routes 6, 106, and 376 on Nova Scotia's Northumberland Shore, 4 km (2.5 mi.) east of the Caribou / Wood Islands (PEI) ferry wharf. Our civic address is: #2119 Three Brooks Road, Hwy 6, Caribou.
