As the number of active Geo-Cachers in syn2cat is growing, the time has come to call this acitivy in active duty. Once a month we'll pick out a day and gear up to find some geo-caches

As Geocaching doesn't just consists of seek and finding, we're also going to hide some of our own caches among the lands of Luxembourg and the world. Besides who says that the content of a box needs always to remain at the very same location?! Creativty knows no limits here. So feel free to join in, be it to get a look in side or to jump in and solve all the riddles out there.
