clent hills Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 The National Trust has devised a 5 box (soon to be 8 box) trail on the Clent Hills and runs geocaching taster days giving people new to geocaching a chance to hire out a GPS and have a go. These have proved very popular, hence more boxes needed. Each box has an activity in it as well as the usual treasures to swap and move around. If I'm honest the member of staff at Clent could do with some help to maintain the course and also some guidance on how to develop things further with travel bugs and more difficult caches etc. If someone local to the Clent Hills would like to be a geocaching volunteer then please could they contact Tamsin, Community Links Officer for the Clent Hills, on 01562 712822. Essential criteria - lives close to the Clent Hills, enjoys walking, loves geocaching, knows more about geocaching than Tamsin (not difficult) flexible, creative, able to give approx 4 hours of their time per month, good at drinking tea and eating cake.

+Amberel Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 To save others Googling... "North Worcestershire, between Hagley and Bromsgrove" And looks to be a lovely spot, shame it's 130 miles from home. Rgds, Andy Quote Link to comment
+The Wombles Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 I've been communicating with Tamsin for many months on behalf of GAGB and she has been very supportive of geocaching. Clent Hills is a very progressive NT property, it would be great if someone local could help out. Quote Link to comment

I'll keep you updated on progress. RB KRO! Quote Link to comment
+drdick&vick Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Good man, it is great to see the NT getting involved in this way. The NT at Wicken Fen has also set out a caching circuit and organise 'Intro to Geocaching' days. They have a good helper over there as well. Quote Link to comment
+ka-rb Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 I'm about 5 miles away. Count me in. Quote Link to comment
+basketcase crew Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 I am in Halesowen which is a couple of miles away. I know the hills pretty well but have only been geocaching a week. I can help now and then if you need help with anything Quote Link to comment
