+Cr8zyC8tL8dy Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Hi, I'm new to Geocaching and love it! However, I would like to meet some people in my area who also love to geocache who I can join and have some fun, meet new people, etc. I'm in the 15666 zip area. Willing to travel 30 miles any direction to meet. I'm an adult geocacher, but other than my family, I don't know anybody who does this here. Link to comment

As a Geocacher from Southeast PA I did not recognize your Southwest PA Zip. We have already had the Mid Atlantic vs Northeast discussion around here. You are a lot closer to the Midwest than I am, but you probably really do want this in the Mid Atlantic forum. The very best way to meet fellow local cachers is go to local events. We are in the 9th year locally of a monthly sit down in a Restaurant event. Sit there for a few hours over dinner with fellow cachers and talk about anything you like. Over time you will learn and remember more and more names and faces. It might not happen right away, but spend enough time around events, and some of them will become friends. I have many new friends met at events, and have cached with several of them. Group night hikes are particularly popular. I would rather be alone in the woods at night than most cities, but many do not feel that way. If someone suggests a group activity, join in. Just keep showing up and get to know as many people as possible. Link to comment

Keystone Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 I see you found the Mid-Atlantic forum (formerly known as the Northeast forum). I am closing this duplicate thread in favor of the one you started in the correct forum. Greetings from the west suburbs of Pittsburgh, by the way. Link to comment
