Geocache Description:

Located in Rimbey, Alberta. Park on the street nearby, or use the convenient wheel paths o get even closer if it's not too muddy.

This is the seventh cache in the WCOS series. For the months of April, May, and June 2006, students at West Country Outreach School are taking part in an Option course called "Orienteering/Geocaching". This opportunity will introduce them to this wonderful sport and hopefully hook a few new cachers in Central Alberta.

To begin with, stealth is required when looking for this cache. The cache is a vitamin bottle with a log sheet, pencil, and baggie loaded with "Almost Worthless Cash." My first job ever was in a candy store, and when the GST came into effect, we were always running out of pennies because items started to cost silly amounts like .37 cents and $1.07. Who carries pennies? Then along came the "Have a penny, Give a penny, Need a penny, Take a penny" cups in stores. This cache will help to lighten your burden or help with those silly little amounts. You'll get the picture when you find it.

Thanks to GPS Central for all of their help in getting this course off the ground.
