geocaching vancouver island tv news story?

[chjonathan]

Hello!

I work for CH TV News on Vancouver Island in BC and I'm interested in doing a news story about Geocaching. I'd especially be interested if we could see a cache north of Nanaimo (Comox Valley? Campbell River?). Please email me at jbartlett@chtv.ca or respond here.

 

Thanks, and I look forward to your response.

Jonathan it looks like you have a few to choose from but nothing as far north as Campbell River. There is one near Comox: http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.asp?ID=15076

and a few closer to Nanaimo:

You could email the individual cache owners directly from the web pages if you wish.

Please post here when your news clip will air. My son lives on the Island and would like to see it. Unfortunately he is not a cacher (yet?).

 

Happy Caching, Olar

You may want to contact AcStark. He his a avid cacher on the southern part of the island. He has a lot of finds, buy more importantly, quite a few hides as well.

 

He posts quite a bit in these forums and is very knowledgeable on the subject. I do not know him, but suspect he would be able to provide you with everything you would want know about geocaching.

You can send e-mails to any GeoCachers through a link in their profile found by clicking on their names at the top of their logs. The 'Marmots' (http://www.geocaching.com/profile/default.asp?A=24822) seem to be in the area.
