Eye Hide - U Seek #09 (aka "Volksmarching") Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Army_SGM: 12:00pm Well the cache zone is GONE. Due to drainage
channel upgrade, the entire area has been bulldozed. Happened so quick, I didn't have a chance to remove the cache. Cache is probably buried somewhere under all the newly placed dirt. At least no Travel Bugs where in it. Thanks to all who visited.

What is Volksmarching
Volksmarching is a non-competitive walk originating in Europe of usually 10 km (6.2 miles). There are shorter routes of 5 km and longer ones 20 km and even 42 km marathons. An award (medal/patch) is usually available for a small fee. Booklets are issued and a special stamp is received for completing events. After 10 events the first "award" is received and consists of a pin, patch, and recognition letter. Further awards are given for 30, 50, 75 and 100 events all the way to 600. There is also a booklet for distance with the first "award" being achieved after 500 km. The motivation to receive further achievement awards is one of the main features of this sport.

The swag in this cache is a variety of "Volksmarching" medals I earned while stationed in Germany. Please keep with the theme and replace with your medals/patches related to your achievement in sports.
