Looking for a "mentor" in Harrisburg Area

[Lasia221]

I'm wondering if there are any more experienced cachers in the Harrisburg area that would be interested in showing the ropes to me and my fiance. We just got our Garmin Legend the other day. I've figured out how to use it, have a few counties worth of street maps for the heck of it since I get lost alot (haha), and have attempted a few caches. I say attempted because we never found them, despite all the previous finders' postings of "hey found this right away" or similar.

 

I learn best by being shown, not reading directions!

Welcome! You'll find that there's a pretty active group of cachers in and around Harrisburg. We have a Yahoo group that you'll probably want to join so you're in on all the local chat. There's also an event (GC19AJK) scheduled for June 12th in Highspire that you might consider attending to meet some of the locals. I'm sure someone will be more than happy to show you the ropes; I may even be able to do so myself if time permits.

 

What part of the 'burg are you in? I live in Mechanicsburg but work in downtown Harrisburg.

I'm on 3rd street, just a stones throw from the Capitol building. Feel free to drop me an email if you want to meet up sometime. I used to have a Garmin Legend and I saw you had some questions about it in another thread, I'd be happy to help you with it if you want. I'll look for you in the GOTCHA group as well.

My Family lives in the Harrisburg area (Enola) and we recently went caching in the area. Try Hope You're Good. It's by far the best cache, I could ever imagine! I can't wait to go back to the area to do it again just for fun and drop a TB.
