CACHING

I am not sure whether there will be any new caches but there will be six temporary caches that will be well worth finding for the first six cachers that find them and six event caches

The caches will post the day of the event. Coordinates will be distributed after lunch to all who participated in the clean up.

There are presently thirty-eight caches in the park with twenty-two plus caches around the Otter Creek Park area. So come early and make a day of cache in and around Otter Creek Park.

REMEMBER

Come early; bring gloves, lunch, caching equipment and a geocaching attitude. Presently we all have an excellent reputation with the local park officials, and we would like to continue to advance our geocaching image.
