Join D’Arcy for an afternoon of geocaching! This new class will introduce you to everything you need to know to get into the hobby of geocaching. It truly is a “Modern Day Treasure Hunt!”
You will learn:

Mapping techniques
Logic skills
Observation skills

A smart phone and good walking shoes are required.
One hour will be spent in the boardroom discussing the above knowledge areas and downloading and learning the applicable app system; and then the remaining two hours will be spent outside finding the local treasures!
