Geocaching 102 Class
Friday, January 22
6:00-8:00pm
Richland Community Center, Activity Room
The "goal" is to have some fun while learning more about the Premium Membership Benefits.
We will investigate the following:
-
How to use your Premium Membership & Geocaching App to the fullest!
-
Finding caches along a specific route (Trip Planner).
-
Grouping geocaches into Bookmark Lists.
-
Downloading your own Pocket Query (PQ) to your phone.
-
Downloading other geocacher's pocket queries to your phone.
- To benefit, please have a Premium Membership & the Geocaching.com Phone App.
Items to Bring:
- Phone - Smartphone please, your flip one will not work.
-
Laptop (not necessary, but helpful) To make PQ's you must use a computer or be able to access geocaching.com from the internet. Personally most of us hate making PQ's on our phone, only on a computer.
Please remember this is a learning place any children need to be of age to be still, quiet and lack the ability to pitch high vocal cord squeals...no babysitters on site.
And remember "There are always stupid questions" your teachers were wrong! So feel free to ask anything prevalent to the issue at hand. No questions about "how your GPS works." This is discussed in a different class.
When you log will attend, please post how many will be attending and if you have an IPhone or Android.
 This event is sponsored by Washington State Geocaching Association. If you are a geocacher in the state of Washington, please consider joining WSGA. See the WSGA website for details. |
