The City of Foley along with the Foley Public Library will host a Foley Geocaching Weekend, Fri, Feb 25 – Sun, Feb 27, 2022. This weekend consists of three separate events on three separate days. Geocaching is a family recreational activity of hunting for and finding hidden objects by means of GPS coordinates posted via the website.
On Fri, Feb 25 @ 4 pm, geocachers will meet at a local tea cottage for a Meet & Greet Tea event. This is a time for geocachers to re-acquaint themselves with one another and to meet new geocaching members. A few prizes will also be given away at this event. Each attendee will receive a scone and a cup of tea or coffee.
On Sat, Feb 26 @ 11 am, a Poker Run event will take place along the Rose Trail in Foley. Meet at a local park to receive coordinates for the special Poker Run finds. Collect five envelopes from the five hidden caches then gather back at the red and white pop-up tent to see who gets the best poker hand. There will be more prize drawings at this event. Free snacks and drinks will be provided.
On Sun, Feb 27 @ 10 am, join us as we thank the City of Foley with a Cache In Trash Out (CITO) event. Meet at the coordinates provided online and you will be given areas of the city to clean. More prizes will be given away at this event. Free donuts and drinks will be served.
Each of these events will be posted at the Geocaching website. Go to www.geocaching.com to register to attend one or more of these events. You can also register via the geocaching app on your phone. Look for GC codes GC9N1AF, GC9N1AQ and GC9N1B8.
