      What makes the WGA’s mission meaningful to you?

      To me if it wasn’t for the greatest cachers we have now their would not be a WGA. But that also being said if it wasn’t for the founding fathers their wouldn’t be great cachers to make up the WGA. Its meaningful to me being on the BOD is not to rewrite history but just to improve on it and keep the train on the tracks that was laid out for us many years ago. I feel part of the WGA family at events and if I get voted in for BOD to be a great representative to keep our mission going forward. Thank you.

      All opinions, comments, and useless drivel I post are mine alone and do not reflect the opinions of the WGA BOD.

      To me, I love the idea of being able to introduce people to geocaching. I love the spark that someone gets when they successfully find their first cache or solve their first mystery. All of the sudden they are hooked and have so many questions! It is also great to see someone who has been doing it for years still have that same spark. It is very inspiring for me to be apart of keeping that spark alive!

      The WGA’s mission promotes geocaching, protects the environment, and builds strong relationships among its members. All three of these things are meaningful to me in some way.

      Since we are a geocaching organization, the game is at the forefront of my reasoning for being involved. I want to help promote and protect geocaching in Wisconsin. We have so many great places to explore, I want to make sure that geocaching is an avenue to these great places.

      The environment is our playground and we only get one chance with it. This is a very important aspect to me because I want to see these great places around the state protected for future geocachers to explore. Our organization needs to be strong in promoting responsible caching to take care of all the beautiful places Wisconsin has to offer.

      The social connections that I have made through the WGA are priceless. I have met such a diverse group of people through the WGA that I feel it has greatly enhanced my life. People who have introduced me to new caching styles. People who have skills or job experiences that I can combine with my own to make changes for the better, not only in geocaching, but in the world we live in. My life holds more value for me when I can work together with others.

      The WGA does so much for the caching community of Wisconsin, whether it is behind the scenes working with other organizations, or putting on a great pancake breakfast every year. I want to be a part of this organization so that hopefully I can make the mission of the WGA meaningful to others.
