The Series
The Athens Awesome Athletic Multi Adventure series is a group of 12, 2-stage multicaches set up to highlight sports in Athens. Of course, when we talk about sports in Athens, we are talking about the University of Georgia (UGA)! The series is the work of poeanne, Pitty Pat, and GeoMonkeyTiger!.
Each multicache will feature a particular sport at UGA. The first stage of each multicache will take you someplace important to that sport. You will need to observe the area to answer the question posed on the cache page. Enter your answer into Certitude. Your reward for the correct answer will be the coordinates to the final as well as 1/12th of the code you will need to enter to unlock the coordinates for GC9PWQJ - 13- Athens Awesome Athletic Multi Adventure BONUS!
The finals for this series are a relatively short distance away and fairly close together. It may make sense to gather the stage 1 requirements for all the caches in the series before heading to the stage 2 locations.
There is some information about each sport on its corresponding cache page.
The entire series can be completed in a few hours. Each cache features a virtual stage 1 and a physical find at stage 2.
