About This Item

I take my name from a song that has also been used by a minor league baseball team in Little Rock, Arkansas, USA.
I am an Arkansas Wood Tick. I am made of wood and I am used in a game to remind outdoors people, like Geocachers, to check for the real thing. In the game whoever has me as a hitch-hiker is to “sneak” me aboard another unsuspecting host. At a random time a leader calls "Tick Check" and whoever has me on board is obliged to perform an “interesting” stunt, song, or reading. The game then continues. It can be minutes between tick checks, but hours are more common.

Won’t you please (knowingly) help me along my travels?

    Doing cache maintenance on the Camp White cache today and found that someone logged picking up the travel bug on 5 May 2004. They have not logged their find of the cache or possession of the travel bug.
