NIGHT GEOCACHING (now in 2 parks!)
Our event will move to two locations: Greenfield's Konkel Park
(N 42* 57.502 W 87* 58.708) and Greendale's Community Center Park
(N42 55.936 W 88 00.495) where the trails will be a "All-A-Glow"
with all new (12+) temporary night geocaches from approximately
7:00-9:30 PMish! Caches will be "family friendly" if you
like spiders and other creepy things. Bring your headlamps,
flashlights and glow in the dark items. No trade items
necessary.
URBAN CAMPFIRE
An "urban" campfire in the back section of Konkel park will add
that special touch from 7:30-9:30 PM ish. Enjoy roasting
marshmellows and making S'mores. The concession stand will not be
open since we will have S'mores. Our intent is to have an
opportunity to meet up and talk with your geocaching friends and
family. Bring your camp chairs!
JUST NIGHT CACHING AND THE URBAN CAMPFIRE?
For those unable to join us for the Sloppy Joes, we will be able
to offer a "Just Night Caching and Campfire" option. Join us at the
