Geocaching Contest
Begins: Monday October 31st at 12:00pm
Ends: Sunday November 20th at 11:59pm.
Six geocaches have been hidden on IU's campus. Those who find all
of the caches will be entered to win a $50 VISA card (to be used at
any location where VISA is accepted) thanks to our event sponsor:
39 Degrees North.
Players have three weeks to find all six caches.
All information about the caches and the challenge is posted on
our club's website: http://www.indiana.edu/~geocache
More Event Details
We will also have GPS units available to be checked out by those
new to geocaching to give it a try. Stop by any time between 10am
and 3:30pm to learn about geocaching, meet some geocachers from our
two local groups (Bloomington Geocachers and the Geocaching Club at
IU), hear about upcoming geocaching events and find some geocaches
that were specifically placed for the event! While there, you will
have the opportunity to see a few displays about other GPS and GIS
technologies that are being used by members of the Bloomington
community and some of the departments at IU. It will give you the
opportunity to learn about other ways you could use your GPS unit
besides geocaching. Check out the GIS Day at IU website to learn
more about the many exciting activities and displays going on for
GIS Day.
Parking
There is visitor parking available at the meters in the library
parking lot or at either of the nearby parking garages.
Unfortunately, as with any event on campus, there is a parking
fee.
