Say Farewell to the Annual Grand Lake Geocaching Campout!

from the 2015 Campout

From 2014-2019 the geocaching community in Colorado enjoyed a very awesome campout event on the last weekend in July.  Geocaching Colorado and IMYY4U2 hosted the event for the first few years, and then as IMYY4U2 & MikeAndJuli stepped out of the the GCCO board they continued the campout tradition as the Grand Lake Campout Committee.

In 2020, COVID-19 and wildfires postponed the Grand Lake Campout.  This carried through 2021 as the location of the campout was closed to reservations.  Now as the world is recovering from COVID-19, MikeAndJuli and IMYY4U2 made the decision to not bring back the annual campout event.

However, the Campout Committee has always been about giving back everything that was put into the campout.  Registration fees and raffle tickets and donations made it possible for us to get some really cool prizes to give back to the attendees of the event.  The thing is, we still have lots of prizes and goodies that would have been part of the next campout. 

CampGround

There is only one thing to do - host a farewell event to give these goodies back to the geocaching community one last time!  

Bring your friends!  We would love to see new cachers and old friends alike!

This is a family-friendly event.  Please bring the kiddos, the muggle spouses, cousins, and even your goofy uncle(s)!

There will Brats and Dogs and Brauts, just like at the campout!  You are welcome to bring a side dish, obviously this is not a requirement.  Bring your own choice of beverage, as well!

Activities available:

  • Putting Green

  • Horseshoe Pits

  • Swimming Pool

If you are going to participate in any of the activities, please bring your own swimsuit, towel(s), sunscreen, etc.
