There are Hidden Treasures in Muskego (Find out)

The Women’s Business Connections group (WBC), an arm of the Muskego Area Chamber of Commerce hosting “Walks in the Parks” program to bring awareness to all the green space Muskego has to offer with family fun activities.

Muskego, Wis. – June 30th, 2013 — Tina Weiss, Executive Director of the Muskego Chamber of Commerce (MACC), announces that the Women’s business Connections group is hosting another “Walk in the Parks” program this Sunday at the Engle Conservation Area S92W19656 Henneberry Dr.  Muskego, WI.   This “Walk in the Park” will introduce geocaching and a great way for families to have fun in our local parks.

Geocaching is a real-world, outdoor treasure hunting game using GPS-enabled devices. Participants navigate to a specific set of GPS coordinates and then attempt to find the geocache (container) hidden at that location. Trinkets are taken from each geocache if one is left in its place, or others caches just ask for a date you found it. John Mooney, local Geocache enthusiast, will be introducing the art of geocache.   Engle Conservation Area boasts up to seven geocaches according to geocache.com.
