Single Day Event

One-Day Events:

These short activities are a good way to collaborate with another nature-based or youth organization in your community. They are simple to plan and draw on the resources of each group.

Family Hike and Geocaching Adventure

This Geocaching and watershed exploration event is for families or groups. It takes place on an evening or weekend, and lasts about two hours. Participants meet at a trailhead and head out on a hike to find the geocaches.

Geocache contents are geared to teaching watershed concepts. The activity can be combined with an introduction to technology where participants, equipped with recording devices, find a geocache which instructs them to "capture" some aspect of the geocaches' location.

If equipment is available for loan in your community, consider allowing people who have gone through a 24-hour LTTR workshop to pick up recording equipment and "tag-along" on a hike/event organized by a community organization (e.g., Audubon bird walks). A planning form for this type of event is included in the supporting documents. There is no LTTR staff supervision required during these excursions.
