William O'Brien SP
has had a pathtag designed that will be debuted during the event
and will be a prize for finding caches.
I am looking for
guest cache hiders and helpers with tpmhe info table from the
geocaching community. If you can bring some rolls or donuts to
share please let me know in the log. Keep this site on
your watch list for changes.
Admission to
the park is free!!
At the same time
the event is going on, the park is having many other activities so
bring your famillies! In the main tent the MnGCA will have a table
to answer questions about geocaching. There is a whole list of
workshops and demostrations, the first one of interest to geocahers
will be the Buckthorn Removal workshop!
