Geocaching in the media
At our recent AGM, Tiffany Hoy, a student from Macquarie University, came along and spoke with a group of geocachers for a feature she planned to write about geocachers.
The group, which included Calypso62 and Webwitch, invited her along for a group hunt after the event and introduced her to the 'hobby'.
Along with a number of of other interviews and contributions she has put together a great story titled 21st Centruy Treasure Hunt. It's a brilliant story and recommended reading.
Well done to Tiffany - or should we say Epiphany22 - and to the geocachers who helped her with the article.
