2025 promises to be an interesting year with new limited cache types available, CAM and the next NOVAGO iteration. Join Washington area geocachers at this special Sunday event, you do not need to purchase anything to attend. We'll talk about Geocaching, upcoming events including Geowoodstock XXI in West Virginia and Block Parties, feel free to work on puzzle solving, trade trackables & coins and share stories from the field.
All are welcome to this family friendly event. It doesn't matter if you have found 50, 1000 or even 0 geocaches, we typically have attendees of all experience levels. We love to see people who are new to geocaching and looking to further explore their new-found hobby. We also enjoy meeting out-of-town geocachers who happen to be in the area, don't feel like this is locals only. If you're in town visiting family or on business, please join us!
Street parking is very rare in this area. Best parking is at the Cameron Street Garage nearby. Install Parkmobile on your phone to save time with ticket machines, Metro is very accesible from here as are rideshares.
