May - Geocaching

20/5/2017

0 Comments

 
A guest speaker, Faye Blainey, introduced us to Geocaching, a 'treasure hunt" using your phone or tablet to locate the treasure. Geocaching has a very large following world-wide with many "treasures" located around Benalla. After locating three practice caches near W4 we ventured out in search of the "Real Treasures" located near Lake Benalla. More information on Geocaching can be found at geocaching.com. 

An alternative to Geocaching is a similar "Treasure Hunt" game Munzee which is very popular with many active locations in Benalla. Again, for more information go to munzee.com

All-in-all a fun afternoon. Thanks Faye
