The Maryland
Geocaching Society invites everyone to join us on Saturday, July
23rd at 10:00 am for the MGS 2011 Summer Picnic.
We would
like to invite everyone who has an interest in the game of
geocaching to come and join in. You do not have to be a member of
the MGS to attend. No matter if you have 10 or 10,000 finds,
everyone is welcome! New to the game? New to the area? Visiting
from out of town? Feel free to join us at Utica District Park in
Frederick, MD.
Utica
District Park contains a playground, several ballfields, a walking
trail and a 320 person pavilion which features a volleyball court
and horseshoe pits. The historic Utica Covered Bridge is also
nearby, which is one of three in Frederick County and one of eight
in the state of Maryland.
