This week’s topic – Geocaching, an Adventure Sport for Any Age

This program is an introduction to the adventure sport of geocaching (an outdoor recreational activity in which participants use navigational techniques to hide and seek containers, or “geocaches”). Hear from renowned geocacher Lynn Choromanski on the history of the sport, how it started, and where it stands today. She will discuss how to get started geocaching, the technology used to participate in the sport, and the tools that will help you retrieve cache containers. Join us for an exciting presentation, including how the growing community of geocachers enhances the sport.

Lynn Choromanski has been geocaching since 2006 and three years retired ago from the profession of nursing. She was a nurse for over 45 years in a variety of capacities in the healthcare system. Lynn started her geocaching journey with her sister and currently has a geocaching streak of over 10 years. Retirement has made geocaching every day easier for her and just this year she achieved some personal goals including visiting and logging a cache in all 50 states and logging her 20,000 cache up in Alaska on her 70th birthday.
