It's that time of the year again.....time to meet up with fellow cachers. Time to sit back and relax. Time to put on your hiking shoes and enjoy the outdoors. Time to have a braai and of course, TIME TO PUT ANOTHER SMILEY OR TWO ON YOUR MAP!
This year we find ourselves back at one of our previous venues. My fellow cachers, you have behaved so well in the past that the owners of inniKloof practically begged us to come back (no jokes)! So the weekend of 15-17 March it is. That is when it is all happening.
Bring along family, friends and muggles (yes we do like them as well). This year it is going to be bigger than ever! It promises to be full of surprises and you will walk away with memories that will last a lifetime!
