GEOCACHING 101 PRESENTATION by AuntieNae

Geocaching, a global game of treasure hunting using longitude and latitude coordinates, is a fun filled adventure for all ages. With a GPS receiver, and internet access, you are ready to explore and search for a “geocache”. This session will instruct the basics needed to enjoy this eco-friendly sport including suggested equipment, the website, how to search for a cache and types of caches. This is an informational presentation only, no hands on cache finding included!
