ACTIVITIES
Trading Card "Escape Castello Sprezzatura" Adventure (Friday through Saturday)
Assemble puzzle pieces in your trading card packs to obtain the clues you need to explore and escape from Castello Sprezzatura. (Castello Sprezzatura will be accessible Friday and Saturday. Your preliminary journey begins as soon as you have assembled your trading card puzzle pieces)
Seven Kingdoms Challenge (Friday through Saturday)
Obtain your passport and embark on the Seven Kingdoms Challenge that takes you throughout the seven hills of Rome. Your stamped passport gains you entry into the tournament games where you demonstrate your Medieval prowess and ingenuity before the Queen. The first 500 geocachers to complete the challenge will receive a special Seven Kingdoms Challenge trackable geocoin.
Lab Caches (Thursday through Sunday)
Enjoy outside-of-the-box geocaching creations by the Going Caching Crew. Rules? We don't need no stinking rules!
Roman Holiday Riverboat Rides (Friday and Saturday)
Explore the Coosa River while cruising aboard the Roman Holiday Riverboat. Who knows ... you might find a special geocache during the voyage.
Log your "will-attend" early to ensure that you do not miss out on announcements, updates, royal proclamations, secret messages and other important stuff. Please select "will attend" rather than merely logging a note so that you will be counted. It matters!
