Geocaching Victoria is a not-for-profit incorporation that seeks to promote the pastime of geocaching in the state of Victoria. Our mission is to bring the geocaching community of Victoria closer together, to encourage relationships across the state and also highlight the great geocaching experiences that exist in our state to others across Australia and around the world.
We do this by hosting small and large scale events and CITOs around Victoria as well as supporting others who also hold events around the state. We are constantly looking for opportunities to develop new and exciting ideas that can aid and enhance the geocaching experience of anyone within the state of Victoria.

Calling all new geocachers, and those who remember what being a new cacher was like. This special lead up event is designed to welcome those newer members of the community. We hope it will be a fun way to connect our newbies with a few friendly, more experienced cachers, so that there will be familiar faces at The Whittlesea Event in November (or any other event!).
It is a great chance to ask any questions, both big and small, and to have an early tour of the showgrounds to help familiarise yourself with the location before arriving in November. We will also be playing Newbie Bingo and snacking on chocolate crackles!
If you have a geocaching name badge, feel free to wear it on the day, otherwise we will have some available to help everyone get to know each other.
If you are an experienced cacher coming along, why not reach out to a new cacher you have met on the caching trail, or interacted with over a 'Phone A Friend' and ask them to come along. If you are a newbie, why not bring a friend.
Your Geo-Pup is welcome at this event, but should be on a short lead and well controlled at all times.
Newbie Bonus - Is this your first event?
If you enjoy geocaching and wish to take your membership further, you may be eligible for a 1 month free upgrade to a premium membership. See any of the Whittlesea Committee during the event for further details.
