Take Part In A High-Tech Scavenger Hunt - Geocaching!
Hey Teens! Want a fun way to get outdoors this summer, exploring your county in an awesome way? Participate in a high-tech scavenger hunt called geocaching! Geocaching is played worldwide with GPS devices, looking for hidden containers located at specific latitude and longitude coordinates. Once you've found these geocaches, you get to go online and share your experiences finding them, all before setting out to find the next one! Maryland has many geocaches hidden throughout and there are even some right here in Prince George's County! You can even hide a geocache yourself, with the permission of a park ranger. Visit the website of the Maryland Geocache Society to connect with fellow enthusiasts, see new trails and learn how to join in on the fun. Get out and enjoy nature and happy high-tech hunting teens! http://www.mdgps.org/
