    Geocaching for Brownies?

    in United Kingdom and Ireland

    Posted

    My daughter asked us to introduce geocaching to her brownies when thet went to camp.

    I set out serveral dummy caches for them over the weekend, explained all the ins & outs and they loved it.

    We arranged for them to do my mini series (4)one evening and it was explained to them that if they tell people where they are they might go missing, so it wont be fair on the next set of cachers to find that they have gone missing, that was 9 months ago and we have had no problems with the caches.

    They have there own account and have put out there own cache which is local so as they can do all the maintenance on it. They also have two TB's out in the wild which they are tracking on a map one in France and the other in Austria, so learning comes into it as well (even if they dont realise it)

    They really enjoy it.

    So I would ay go for it.

    You'll probably think I enjoy making lists well, as a matter of fact, I do :P

    Some of us are probably busy during this Holiday period and aren't coming on the forum as often as usual. Just let us know when you'll receive your mission, it will be greatly appreciated :angry:

     

    Only 9 days left <_<

     

     

    I posted on 07/12/10 post no 245 to say mine has arrived! :P

    Glad you like the coin, I fell in love with it when I saw it, luckily the coin designer only live about 15 miles (as the crow flies) from me and he is selling them in his outdoor shop, so we went up to get one (well two as I had to have one for myself of course!) especially for the mission. You must have been sending out vibes!!!

    Cannot believe it only took 8 days to get to you.

    Merry Christmas to everyone in the mission.

    I have now received all three coins and cards that I was expecting.

     

    On Friday, I received all of this great stuff from Cornwall! The geocoin was especially welcome since I had wanted to buy one of these when they were offered, but for various reasons it did not happen. Through a Noel miracle, I now have a St. Piran.

    Woo Hoo my mission arrived today (along with Joyeux Noel Mission from the same sender!!!!!(would love to know what the odds on that are!))

    I received a pair of socks, a pair of gloves, two magnetic note pads (now I will allways have a note pad to hand) four sachets of spiced tea (looking forward to tasting them) a large thermal mug (which hubby has his beady eye on) and eight peanut butter trees (yum) AND three coins all wrapped up and placed in a super christmas tin.

    Not sure what the coins are yet so will have to do a bit of research, i'm sure someone will let me know when I can get the photos up. One is a small white envelope, an earthday coin (?) and a very large copper coin with 5 green jewels in it (stunning)

    So its a very HUGE THANK YOU to ESeurat for two fantastic missions.

    :D:D:D

    Woo Hoo my mission arrived today and I had quite a surprise as my sender had me for TWO missions (this one and lorcal's winter mission (what are the odds on that!!!!)).

    So I have a rather large box.

    For this mission I had a card and a bigfoot coin, it is oh so sweet and I love it.

    I'll tell you what else I got in the other forum.

    Photos on the way asap.

    Thankyou so much to ESeurat

    This is hard! 5 persons, 1 have a seekinglist from wich I have nothing and 4 are new to me.

    I guess they will have to be happy with the coins I pick for them. I have a thought behind every coin I send and hopefully it will be good enough.

    I know I am pleased with any coin I recieve. I do not have that many (30ish).

    So go for it, if they are not happy with the coins maybe they should not enter missions!!!

     

    With only a few coins I think the likelyhood of getting a double is pretty rare, and if I did I wouldn't mind.

    I dont actually activate my coins as they will not be released into the world, not sure whether I should or not, what does everyone think on here?
