Groundies! Playground Game Cache Traditional Cache

This cache is temporarily unavailable.

BlueRajah: Hello looking4rainbows

The cache appears to be missing or under the weather. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the cache owner the opportunity to check on the cache, and repair it, if necessary. If the owner feels they will not be able to repair this in a timely manner (i.e., three weeks) it may need to be archived. This will keep the cache from continually showing up in search lists. If there is no response stating what the owner intends to do on the cache page in the next few weeks ( 21 Days ) the cache may be archived.

If you do fix the cache, please post a Owner Maintenance log, then an enable log to allow people to start searching for it again.

Thank you,

Geocache Description:


Cache is a now a micro. I have replaced the cache in a new location. (May 2021 and Sept 2021) Please, put it back really well hidden so it won't get muggled.

This park has a good playground for playing "GROUNDIES!"

It is a game that is pretty much a mix of Marco Polo and Tag on a playground.

One player starts by counting to 10 on the ground while the other players get on the playground equipment to avoid the person who is "it". After counting they call out "GROUNDIES!" and then they can try to tag people. The catch is that the "it" person must have his/her eyes closed if they leave the ground to get onto any equipment or by jumping in the air. If someone gets tagged, they are the new "it".

People being chased generally would stay on the playground equipment, but there are occasions when they would get off the equipment onto the ground to get from one place to another more quickly. If the "it" person thinks that someone is touching the ground, he/she may call out, "GROUNDIES!" If the person who was touching the ground gets groundies called on him/her while they were on the ground when the word "GROUNDIES!" is said, they become to new "it".

WARNING: Although this is a very fun game, it can be dangerous. Because you are jumping from one obstacle to another, be safe and have fun playing!
