Get Outdoors Souvenir

There is a new souvenir up for grabs on Saturday, the 11th of June 2016.

Initially this souvenir was only going to be available to Geocachers in the USA as it is related to a USA initiative called Great Outdoors Month. The Get Outdoors Day souvenir is part of a bigger initiative with the American Recreation Coalition and other US-based outdoor organizations to get more Americans outside during National Get Outdoors Month.

Given the interest expressed by geocachers all over the world in participating in Get Outdoors Day, Groundspeak decided to make the souvenir available to anyone who finds a geocache or attends an event (anywhere in the world!) on June 11, 2016.

Find out more here.

There are some big geocaching weekend events coming up in the next few months:

GC6B2Y6 Tswaing Crater Sleepover VIII, 2016 on 15-17 July in Gauteng

GC6FRHH At The Coast (Weekend Event) on 26 - 28 August in Western Cape

Finally, remember that

Get Connected

One of the things that GoSA is trying to do is encourage geocachers to communicate with each other and meet each other. There are already many regional Facebook groups up and running, and we know geocachers have their own blogs to share their experiences with the wider community . The list we know about is on our website, if you know of any other Facebook groups or blogs, please share them with our webmasters so we can add them to the website.

We are always on the lookout for photos from events or cool caches, as well as any fun, interesting, unusual or exciting geocaching stories to share with the geocaching community. If you want to share yours, send it to us by emailing it to our webmasters.
