In our July-August newsletter, we presented a geocaching exercise for the outdoor- and technology-inclined. Geocaching is an activity in which one uses a hand-held GPS, such as a smart phone or tablet, to find a hidden container or “cache” using longitude and latitude points. In the cache is a log book for recording a successful find.
A determined set of sleuths turned out over the course of the month to seek what they hoped to find — and the opportunity to win a $25 gift certificate to a local business.
And the winners are:
Olive Brown, who was an instant winner because she was the first person to find all five of the caches. Ahman Dirks (not pictured) and Asher Harris won in a random drawing for those who also found the five locations. Other participants not pictured were Kohen Newmister and Marshall, Jackson, Abbey, Owen, Tim, Ferris, Sam and Alex (last names not available).
Thanks to everyone who participated and to BWNA board member John Sandie for setting up the challenge!
