+Carbon Hunter Posted September 13, 2010 Posted September 13, 2010 One of Camel Master's caches has made the local press. Great exposure once more. I add his email as a quote for your review. Fellow geocachers, In September's edition of Oman2day there is an article about geocaching, or rather about a novice journalist geocacher visiting his first cache "Arja's Ziggurat" in Wadi Jizzi. You can find it here: http://www.omantoday.co.om/disCon.aspx?Cval=234 It is the intention that the journalist visits one of Oman's caches each month and describes his adventures in getting there, thereby also highlighting various facets of the country which may not be well known to the average reader. A great initiative and a good advertisement for geocaching, given that there are at the moment only 3 active geocaching teams in Oman! Enjoy the read! Robert Quote
+cincol Posted September 22, 2010 Posted September 22, 2010 It would be great if we could get a local jounalist here in Qatar to do something similar. I will see what I can do about getting some support from the papers. Quote

+Carbon Hunter Posted January 6, 2011 Author Posted January 6, 2011 Here are a few other great articles from Oman Today's archives: Sept 2009 - intro and talk with Camel Master Another Muscat cache Jebel Akhdar caching Quote
+me N u Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 Good to see geocaching in a positive light in the news. Funny how these articles aren`t mentioned in the weekly newsletter (probably because its outside the U.S.A.!!) Quote
+Carbon Hunter Posted January 7, 2011 Author Posted January 7, 2011 I also think we need to submit them to GS.com. I sent the most recent one into to them this week (the Sur harbour link). We'll see if it makes the news? Quote
