Meet fellow geocachers and learn all about the world of Geocaching from experienced geocachers on Thursday, October 18, beginning at 6:47 p.m., at the BP Energy Center, 900 E. Benson Blvd. (Click for map.)
Tonight's speaker is Randy Cler, aka cavyguy. He will deliver a fast-paced presentation on GPS Operation and installing and using the NW Trails maps on your GPSr. This topic is perfect for both new and old Geocachers.
This event will be carried live over the internet via WebEx with formal remote meeting sites in Soldotna and Fairbanks. Contact us immediately if you can host a remote site session. GeocacheAlaska!

If we need to make any announcements about this event, all registered attendees will automatically receive an email copy of those announcements via the email you have registered with your Geocaching.com account. Adding a "Will Attend" log to this page will also assure enough hard copy handouts are printed for the event participants.
Please arrive on time so upfront administrative details can be handled and announcements made, allowing the course content to start precisely at 6:59 p.m. Also, please bring your favorite nonalcoholic beverage and a dessert to share with your fellow cachers.
