This cache has been archived.

The Seanachai: Greetings from Geocaching.com,

As part of my duties, I am archiving this cache as it has been over 30 days since the event occurred. From the Geocaching.com listing guidelines regarding event caches:

"After the event has passed, the event cache should be archived by the organizer within four weeks."

Thank you for taking the time to create and host this event, but it is time for the listing to be archived.

Geocache Description:

 Geocaching 101 with KTAG and Clarksville Parks and Recreation
May 7, 2011

Clarksville, TN


Are you new to geocaching?  Are you an experienced veteran?  Somewhere in between?  We hope to see all of you at Billy Dunlop Park in Clarksville TN. The park is located on Needmore Road between 101st Parkway and Tiny Town Road.

  We will host an informal presentation, held in the pavilion.  Presentation will start at 8:00 am and continue till 10:00 am. This will be an opportunity for  new geocachers to learn from experienced geocachers. We will cover the following topics and any you can think of.

  • What is geocaching?
  • GPS Technology in general
  • Maps - Which Type?
  • Types of Geocaches
  • How to get started
  • Before you leave - Tips
  • Etiquette
  • Camo Techniques
  • Trackables
  • Wrap-up Q&A

After the presentation, we will break up into groups combining cachers of varying experiences to find  geocaches hidden in the park.

We encourage experienced geocachers to come and help guide the small group hunts.  If you’ve been to an event cache before, you know what fun it can be!  You can also ask individuals questions regarding paperless caching, including the use of GSAK and Iphone Apps. 

Bring your GPSr if you have one, but if you’re new a GPSr isn’t required! We will have some drinks but you can bring a picnic to enjoy during or after the event, it is a beautiful park after all.

Please RSVP your plans to attend the event by posting a "will attend" log on this page
