Class is still a go this evening even
with the rain.
With a GPS receiver and internet access, you are ready to
explore and hunt for a "geocache". Learn the basics necessary to
enjoy this eco-sport including suggested equipment, GPS receivers,
the website, how to search for a cache and types of caches.
After the presentation, the group will go to Konkel Park to put
their new skills to practice (transportation on your own). Children
are welcome to participate with their parents or caregiver. Program
will include searching for temporary caches hidden at Konkel park.
You will enjoy the thrill of the hunt, but the real discovery is
the countless locations of natural beauty and historical interest
you will find that you never knew existed. Families are encouraged
to participate. Please dress for the weather and bring your
flashlights. Workshop will include both an indoors and outdoors
portion. If you have a GPS receiver, please bring it (not
required).
