Programme
- We will do Geocaching as in Stroossen Wibbelt 2011. See there for the cache description and the posters.
- Throwie building? No. It's "wibbelt", no sports associated with throwies. What about harddisk-Weitwurf?
Todo
- we have only one GPS, would need some more
- shall we put gimmicks in the cache?
- buy cache container(s), last time we gave the container with the money away. Bad idea :-)
- create beginners and advanced cache boxes
- print the posters for the schedule & plastify
- create banner "geocaching"
- create poster/flyer with QR codes for geocaching apps
- do a pre run of the geocaches with all people which will be on the booth
Setup
Material
Put all this in the event box. Cover the box with plastic in case it's rainy

what where
Need several people

Activity
Depending of the available people on stand start a geocaching tour every 30 minutes. The beginners lasts 20 minutes, the advanced 45 minutes.
- explain what geocaching is
- go with a group to the cache, give GPS recievers to group. Do not lead them.
- advanced: on each waypoint give 5-10 minutes to solve. Explain that sometimes on other caches this can be much more complex.
- at the cache people can put donation in box. For security, go back and recover the money from box.
