Geocache Description:


Everybody has a different way of waking up in the morning. Here's a way to start out your morning, by gathering with a like minded bunch of people to swap stories about geocaching over a cup of Joe.  

It's the first Saturday of the month and the New Year has just begun. Come enjoy a cup of coffee with us before you start your day.


Come on down and grab a cup of coffee and spend some time shooting the breeze with other local geocachers. You'll be able to trade travel bugs and just hang out for awhile while you recharge your batteries with your favorite type of morning beverage.

This event will be held at the Starbucks in Claremont at the corner of Foothill and Claremont. The event will start at 8:00 AM and end somewhere around 9:30 in the morning. That way, you'll still have plenty of time to do whatever you wanted to do for the rest of the day. We will probably be meeting on the outdoor patio, unless the weather turns really nasty.
