Geocaching is a real-world, outdoor treasure

hunting game using GPS-enabled devices. The

GPS is a navigational system involving satellites
and computers that can determine the latitude
and longitude of a receiver on Earth by
computing the time difference for signals from
different satellites to reach the receiver.
GPS receiver
Contains a computer that "triangulates" its own
position by getting bearings from three of the
four satellites. The result is provided in the form
of a geographic position - longitude and latitude.

If a fourth satellite can be received, the
receiver/computer can figure out the altitude as
well as the geographic position.

4. Demonstrate entering the latitude and longitude
coordinates into the GPS to find a Geocache in
your area. (will be shortly.lets learn a little bit
about this fun adventure)
a) Traditional Cache: Normal geocaches. If you
go to the posted coordinates, you will find some
type of box or container hidden there. Inside
the container you will probably find a log book
to sign and some trinkets to trade.

b) Micro-cache: This is a traditional cache in a
tiny container holding usually nothing more
than a small roll of paper and pencil on which
to record your visit; and you may need to bring
your own pencil
c) Virtual cache: Is a cache that exists in a form
of a location. Depending on the cache 'hider,' a
virtual cache could be to answer a question
about a location, an interesting spot, a task,
etc.

c) Multilevel cache: These are like traditional
ones, except there are multiple stages. When
you get to the posted coordinates you will find
a container. However, there won't be a log book
inside. Instead there will be another set of
coordinates which lead to another box.
Eventually you will get to the final stage.
e) Travel Bug: Is a trackable tag
that you attach to an item. This
allows you to track your item on
Geocaching.com. The item
becomes a hitchhiker that is
carried from cache to cache (or
person to person) in the real
world and you can follow its
progress online.


Muggle: It is used to refer to someone who does
not geocache. Usually this term is used after a
non-geocacher looks puzzled at a geocacher
making circles with their GPS receiver, or when a
non-geocacher accidentally finds a cache.
What is usually in a cache?


What should NOT be in a cache?
a) Toys b) Books c) Crayons c) Swags, .

An activity held sacred by Pathfinders everywhere,
Trash Out simply means to take along a plastic
trash bag while hunting Geocaches and picking up
trash on the way.
Yes We will be going to practice all these
good things we just learned. But. Wait

We need to learn something very important.

Lets talk about this topic.
Discuss Matthew 6:19-21 and Jeremiah 29:13
and compare them to geocaching.
Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth,
where moth and rust destroy and where thieves
break in and steal; but lay up for yourselves
treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust
destroys and where thieves do not break in and
steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart
will be also. Matt. 6:19-21
Discuss Matthew 6:19-21 and Jeremiah 29:13
and compare them to geocaching.
And you will seek Me and find Me, when you
search for Me with all your heart. Jeremiah 29:13
Safety concerns you should consider when
geocaching
Always take water with you
Never go alone
Always tell someone where you are going
