Easter Egg Event of 2017
This year we are returning to Columbia County to one of our favorite conservation groups, the Columbia Land Conservancy (CLC), to introduce as many cachers as possible to the Round Ball Mountain Conservation Area.
Tired of the snow? Looking to get out for one of your first Spring events? Well, I am not sure that snow will be gone, but we will be out again hosting our annual Easter Egg Event!! Come join us and other cachers for an Easter Egg hunt at the Round Ball Mountain Conservation Area, Ancram, NY. Find some eggs, find some caches, and find some friends (or make new ones) as you and/or your children look for eggs spread throughout the preserve.
Prizes for found eggs will include candy, toys, geo-items, and other items yet to be determined. Drinks and snacks will be made available. If you want to bring something to share, then please post it so others will know. If you would like to contribute items to be given away, then please contact me.
Bring your friends, bring your children, bring your pets and bring yourselves! It would also be wise to bring the bug repellant and some tweezers as some of us discovered ticks, not geocoins, on our clothing at last year’s event! YUCK!! Last year’s event went pretty well and we had some really nice weather. Let us hope this year’s event follows suit!
About Round Ball Mountain:
“In 2008, CLC purchased the Round Ball Mountain property through a bargain sale, whereby the sellers donated a portion of the value. The site used to be home to chestnut trees as large as six feet in diameter. Around 1912, the site was cleared for timber – stump sprouts of chestnut trees can still be found in some areas of the property. “
This event will take place from 11am-3pm unless otherwise noted.
