Students "Explore" Geo-Caching

Students in grade 7 and 8 began to explore the high tech treasure hunt game called Geo-caching on Friday March 31st. The grade 7 and 8 girls began during their outdoor phys ed. period, and the boys will do the same during theirs. The students used a hand held GPS unit to look for a hidden "cache". Inside each cache is a small notepad for the student to record the time they visited, plus some various small "prizes" the students could trade for. There were a few "minor" glitches but overall the kids (and adults) enjoyed the beautiful spring morning and a good walk through the neighborhood.
