Geocache Description:

Sunday February 12, 2017

Wintertime recreational event has been scheduled with hours between noon and 3:30pm at the Blackstone River & Canal Heritage State Park. Outdoor activities planned; heated indoor space is also available at River Bend Farm Visitor Center.

Join Frosty the Snowman in the Search for Winter Wonders.

Great opportunity for beginner as well as seasoned cachers to try out winter searching with their new toys, high tech gifts and/or other equipment. Weather permitting, outdoor activities will include cross country ski course or snowshoeing route along the canal.  Please bring your own (non-motorized) equipment.

FOOD and refreshments include hot chocolate to complement the bring-a-snack table for which you are welcome to bake or buy, and hot dishes are always welcome.

TRAVEL BUG exchange table, as well as a TB discovery table, will be available. To facilitate smooth transfer, please consider posting a note (or will attend) in advance to drop the TBs you will be bringing. If you have an extra one to drop, that will allow a newcomer to grab one if they can help it along. There will be a TB Sign In/Out sheet, so please sign them in and out. We use this for answering any questions that arise during the week to follow. Log TBs out on website as soon as you can, but do allow some time if they were not dropped early.

CACHE ITEM exchange will be a Patriots swap. In the spirit of the season (Winter, Football playoffs, after Xmas or geoAnytime), you are invited to bring any type of trade items (with value about $5) either gift wrapped or not. At about 3pm, we will start drawing one name at a time for someone who is in the room to pick out an item, then pick the next name.  To make it easy on everyone, you must be present to win!


PLEASE USE PARKING LOT FOR HEALTH CENTER AT THE CORNER OF OAK ST AND HARTFORD AVE TO LEAVE LIMITED SPACES AT VISITOR CENTER FOR GENERAL PUBLIC.
