Come celebrate International Geocaching Day with us at the 12th Albany Geocoin Challenge!
This year’s event will start and end at the same location. We will take a group photo, then hand out passports at 10:00am at Allan's Coffee & Tea warehouse lot, 1852 Fescue St. SE. We will hand out coins at this same location. This year’s challenge will run from 10am until 4pm. Any passports completed after 4:00pm on Saturday can be turned in for your coin at Comfort Suites Linn County (100 Opal Court NE) starting Sunday morning while supplies last. Passports can also be picked up at Comfort Suites starting Sunday morning for anyone unable to make it to the event on Saturday. This is a family friendly event and fun for all ages!
We will be kicking off the weekend with an Albany Geocoin Pre-Challenge CITO on Friday evening. See GCB9FJF for more details.
Our theme this year is Albany Parks! The coin challenge will consist of both traditional caches and Adventure Labs, so be sure to download the Adventure Lab app if you haven't already!
Coins are limited to one per household!
To receive a coin you must:
*Have an active geocaching account
*Complete the passport
*Show proof of completing the Adventure Labs
