Certified Restoration Sponsors La Mesa Centennial
Geocaching Craze Comes to the La Mesa Centennial Celebrations
(La Mesa, CA) For those who see themselves as keen sleuths or just want to join in on the fun, the La Mesa Centennial Committee proudly announces the La Mesa Centennial Amazing Geocache Challenge. Kicking off with the Flag Day Parade on June 2, 2012, this event promises to be family-friendly and engaging. The Amazing Geocache Challenge will conclude on October 7, 2012, during the La Mesa Oktoberfest. Participation is open to everyone—residents and non-residents, young and old, novices and experts alike.
Geocaching, an outdoor treasure hunt enjoyed by millions globally, utilizes handheld GPS devices or GPS-enabled smartphones. During the La Mesa Centennial Amazing Geocache Challenge, cleverly hidden geocaches (containers) will be scattered throughout the city, each unveiling intriguing historical facts about the area. Participants will navigate to provided coordinates to locate the geocaches, all while being introduced to local parks, activities, and historical sites.
To add an exciting twist, there will be a competition for prizes as part of the Amazing Geocache Challenge. Participants interested in competing can pick up Challenge forms at the La Mesa Library or download them from the Centennial website (http://www.cityoflamesa.com/index.aspx?NID=1258). Challenge questions will be hidden inside the geocaches, and completed forms must be returned to a collection box at the La Mesa Library by October 7, 2012. Those who answer all questions correctly will be entered to win prizes.
For those looking to join in, Geocaching 101 information sessions will be held at the La Mesa Library, located at 8074 Allison Ave, La Mesa, CA 91942, on Saturday, May 19, and Saturday, July 21. Additional information will also be available on June 2 at the community picnic following the Flag Day Parade.
The La Mesa Centennial Amazing Geocache Challenge is proudly sponsored by the La Mesa Historical Society, La Mesa Expand the Parks through the La Mesa Park and Recreation Foundation, and the La Mesa Centennial Committee.
