NYCRG stands for New York Capital Region Geocachers. Cachers give back to the community by volunteering their time and talents. Many thanks to the volunteers that hide and maintain the caches for the NYSP Sara-Cap Geocaching Challenge and to those who create and paint containers to make these hides special. Whether this geocache find at Schodack Island State Park is your first find in NY’s Capital Region or your 500th , you are now an NYCRG. If you would like to interact with geocachers in the area, you can attend a geocaching event or look for New York Capital Region Geocachers on Facebook. Welcome to the community.
This cache is part of the 2025 New York State Saratoga/Capital District Regional Geocache Challenge! The stamp inside this cache is part of the game, and it is not a trade item – please do not take the stamp. There are geocaches hidden within 19 state parks and historic sites in this park region, and geocachers finding 45 or more will be eligible to receive a 2025 NYS Parks trackable geocoin. If you are interested in taking the challenge, you can pick up a geocache passport at any of the participating parks and sites or download at https://parks.ny.gov (search for 2025 NYS Parks Saratoga – Capital Region Passport).
