Extra things to keep in mind:

  • New and Fellow Seasoned Geocachers, if you are attending please log your 'Will Attend' if at all possible. We hope to see you there!  You can do this one... so definitely say you will be there.. just click "will attend".  Didn't see this before becuase you are super new at geocaching, but heard about this at the Library... don't worry, you can log your "Attended" and get your first event logged once you are set up with your new geocaching name.

  • If you are not feeling well, please be thoughtful of others and stay home.
  • Questions about the Library event location, may be answered by calling 703-737-8490, website: Purcellville Library

Note About Travel Bugs or Trackable Coins:

  • If you bring these please do not leave them behind. Unless you know someone is "grabbing" it from you, please remember to take it at the end of the event. (Don't know what these are?  Don't worry, you will learn)

  • If you pick up a Travel Bug or trackable coin at one of the events, make sure you log it out so it doesn't show up in the events list. (BUGS..?? again not exactly sure.. we will tell you, they don't bite)
