3-8-07 Geocaching


http://ncce007.wikispaces.com/

I learned to Geocache at NCCE 3 years ago and now it is my favorite hobby. So I enjoyed going out and finding the caches hidden around the area. They had about 70 units to check out. (I brought my own.) I did a geocaching activity kind of like this with my kids last year. (I borrowed units from the ESD) I got some great ideas for improving my activity. We each had a booklet with a write up about each cache. In the cache there was a sticker for you to place your book. You had to find all 8 caches in order to be entered into a drawing for a GPS. They also had waypoints where you went to a sight and gathered information to answer questions. (This would be another neat thing to do with kids.)
