Geocaching

Geocaching...sponsored by Upper Macungie Township

Geocaching is a unique outdoor recreational activity much like a scavenger hunt.  Participants, regardless of their age and ability, using latitude/longitude coordinates and a hand-held GPS unit or smart phone with GPS capabilities to locate hidden containers (called “caches”) and maybe find a “treasure” of sorts.

As part of our event, we will hide caches and give you the coordinates to help you on your search.  If you have a GPS unit, bring it along.  If you don’t, we hope to have made arrangements to have units to loan out.

The main location will be at Route 100 Park on Saturday, June 30th from 10am-2pm.  This is a “rain or shine” event.  For those not familiar with geocaching, a short presentation will be provided.  The event is FREE and no registration is required, just show up and enjoy the activity!
