Girl Scouts Promote Geocaching

Jeannie O'Sullivan of New Jersey wrote treasure hunters gather in Delanco park, the article should be titled Treasure Hunters find novelty items and cheap trinkets.  more than 5 million Geocachers see this sight on a regular basis and consider themselves lucky because it could be just a piece of paper. Jeannie continues telling us about Sarah Loring and her good friend Samantha Booth, they are both members of Girl Scout Troop 25416. these two 14year old girls organized a workshop teaching people about Geocaching.they did this to earn their silver badge. like most Geocachers they did it once and now their hooked. actually they started by accident when Samantha's mom found a cache at camp and investigated it. this was several years and she has influenced her daughter and her daughters friends. the group has now discovered  a number of parks they did not even know existed. now they look for green areas on mapquest and hope to locate a cache these girls are becoming experienced geocachers. Samantha gas even found some in Ireland during a trip there. I love to see the rising generation taking an interest in the sport
