JMAM 25 Anniversary Geocache
Geocaching is an activity where participants seek hidden containers, called caches, using a variety of methods and clues that may include GPS (global positioning system) or other navigational aids. A typical cache may include a memento or prize, and a logbook where the geocacher or locator enters the date the cache was found.
About the Geocaches
As part of the Janice Mason Art Museum’s 25th anniversary celebration, the museum board decided to hold a Geocache Challenge. We are proud to be part of the history of Cadiz and wanted to highlight other historical places and events within the Cadiz city limits. In each watertight box is a laminated and folded card with information about sites near where you are visiting. The geocaches might not always be located at the precise location discussed on the cards, so explore the area and see what you can find.
For the “JMAM 25th Anniversary Geocache Challenge,” there are 7 geocaches placed throughout the City of Cadiz. If you locate each geocache, and collect a numbered aluminum tree tag from each cache, you can turn them in at the Janice Mason Art Museum for one of 200 (??) Commemorative Coins created for this event. The challenge began September 18.
