This event is a joint effort with the Loudoun County Library in Sterling on February 22nd from 11-12  for about an hour. Geocachers are welcome to linger for a bit after the talk and swap caching stories.

Extra things to keep in mind:

  • Do not leave Travel Bugs or trackable coins behind. Unless you know someone is "grabbing" it from you, please remember to take it at the end of the event. (Don't know what these are?  Don't worry, you will learn)
  • If you pick up a Travel Bug or trackable coin at one of the events, make sure you log it out so it doesn't show up in the events list. (BUGS..?? again not exactly sure.. we will tell you, they don't bite)
  • Each person attending is asked to please log your 'Will Attend' if at all possible. We hope to see you there!  You can do this one... so definitely say you will be there.. just click "will attend" (LCPL do not register people for events)

  • If you are not feeling well, please be thoughtful of others and stay home.
