Add to Calendar: iCalendar Google Yahoo MSN/Hotmail/Live

Maybe you've heard of geocaching and wondered what it was, or even thought of trying it out for yourself. Well, here's your chance! Come learn the basics of geocaching and how much fun you can have and learn how to start your very own real life, GPS guided treasure hunt!

Geocaching experts from the Michigan Geocaching Organization (MiGO) will be on hand to discuss all of the gear and resources you'll need to start enjoying this rapidly growing activity before we hit the trails and find some caches.

We will be meeting at the Gun Lake Day Use area pavilion.

MiGO also invites you to stick around after Geocaching 101 for their Fall Fun Day, where they will be having even more geocaching fun as they place new caches and have a delicious potluck lunch!
