Brush up on your birds identification skills, pack your rubber boots and hip waders and practice your
canoeing techniques. The Cache the Marsh Challenge is coming soon!
The Oak Hammock Marsh is located just 20 minutes North of Winnipeg and features
over 20 miles of trails and a world class Interpretive Centre. Approximately 300
species of birds can be found in this rich wetland habitat as well as many
mammals, fish, reptiles and amphibians.
The event will consist of finding the many clues left behind in some of the 30
plus geocaches while learning about the environment that surround you.
The event will take place on Sunday May 31st, starting at 10:30am with an
introduction to GPS and geocaching for beginners. The Challenge will be from
1p.m. to 5p.m. and will end with a BBQ and award ceremony.
You can find more info by looking up the event (GC1QQ5P) or send me an email for
further information.
