Earth Day Geocache Hunt

Event Summary

Winneshiek County Conservation will be hosting a Geocache Hunt to celebrate Earth Day on Sunday, April 24 from 2:00-4:00 pm at Lake Meyer Park.  

Geocaching is a high-tech scavenger hunt that uses GPS technology to locate hidden treasures. Join Winneshiek County Conservation staff to learn the basics of GPS and geocaching, and then head off to find caches and prizes hidden across Lake Meyer Park just for this event.  

The Geocache Hunt is free and open to all. Equipment and instruction will be provided; no previous experience with GPS or geocaching is necessary. Operating the GPS units is best for ages 10 and up. All children are welcome to accompany groups and join in on the hunt.  

Space is limited and registration is required by Wednesday, April 20 by calling (563) 534-7145.  

Lake Meyer Park is located at 2546 Lake Meyer Road, off of Highway 24 between Calmar and Fort Atkinson. For more information, contact Winneshiek County Conservation at (563) 534-7145.
