Geocaching! We're celebrating International Earth Cache Day by geocaching at Quarry Hill, primarily to find the earth cache there. But depending on everyone's walking stamina these days, we'll also hunt other geocaches in the park. If you've never geocached before, this is a great time to join us. Wear your hiking shoes, long sturdy pants, and otherwise dress for the weather.
1 pm, Quarry Hill Park, at the Nature Center parking lot.
