Geocache Weekend At Lake Cumberland SRP, April 22-24

By Robert Myers

Jamestown, KY - Lake Cumberland State Resort Park will host the 11th Annual Earth Day Geocache Weekend April 22-24.

Geocaching is an outdoor sporting activity in which the participants use a Global Positioning System (GPS) to hide and seek containers, called "geocaches" or "caches."

The geocache weekend will begin on Friday, April 22, and continue through Sunday, April 24. The weekend starts Friday evening at Lake Cumberland State Resort Park with registration from 5:30 p.m. through 8 p.m. CDT. The staff will also go over event rules.


Caching will commence promptly at 8 a.m. Saturday and Sunday morning at Lake Cumberland and will end at noon Sunday. Participants will meet briefly each morning to disseminate coordinates and your cache packet. You may be able to download the coordinates to your GPS if you have a USB cord with you. Otherwise, you can manually download coordinates.

The registration fee for the weekend is $30 per couple (any two people) and $20 per individual; children 12 and under are $10. Preregistration is not required, but would be greatly appreciated. A limited number of lodge rooms are available at a special rate for the weekend. Call 1-800-325-1709.
