In 2018 we are "RETURNING TO CACHEVILLE". Clarksville was the Number 1 Arkansas Caching Community in the early days of caching. Join us as we return to Clarksville and revisit some of the sites of original, creative, fun caches.....
A big thank you goes out to the Clarksville Community Center ( Marvin Vinson Multi-Purpose Building) for their generosity and facilities. Please take time to THANK an Employee when you see them at the event.
Please come and be part of the adventure at the Annual ArkGeo Event and discover what makes the Arkansas Geocachers Association so much fun.
This event is for Everyone who enjoys geocaching in Arkansas, regardless of how many years you've been caching or the number of smileys you have! Match a face with a geocacher's name, talk about some of the favorite caches in our state, or come enjoy the lunch we put on for you. We will list new information here as it becomes available, so please check the cache page often for updates. A generous donation has guaranteed that we have the entire building for the whole day, rain or shine. Plan to spend the entire day, since the fun continues with free time to cache from 2-5:00 pm, followed by a CITO/Hotdog Roast Event beginning @ 5 pm and running till 8:00 pm.
IMPORTANT: WHEN YOU LOG YOUR "WILL ATTENDS", PLEASE INCLUDE AN ACCURATE NUMBER IN YOUR GROUP. WE WILL NEED AN ACCURATE HEAD COUNT FOR THE CATERER ON APRIL 20TH. FOOD CAN ONLY BE GUARANTEED FOR THOSE WHO POST A LOG ALONG WITH NUMBER OF ATTENDEES.
