Blue Switch Day - May 2, 2000 - the U.S. government opened up accurate GPS technology for public use - and the following day, the first geocache was hidden! For geocachers, this day is a milestone, celebrated with pride!
Geocaching HQ created a souvenir for geocachers to celebrate Blue Switch Day 2024. To earn this souvenir, geocachers must find one geocache, Event Cache, or Adventure Lab® Location between May 2–5, 2024.
Come and celebrate! Blue Ice Cream will be available for purchase (Cash Only), but no purchase is necessary. Plenty of caches to find in nearby Mount Airy Forest.
Just FYI, this is the day of the Flying Pig Marathon, but this event is not on the route!
