Have you heard of Geocaching?  It’s using satellites to find Tupperware in the woods. It’s a great way to get outdoors and find new trails and parks. Sweet Run State Park has over 15 caches hidden away in the park. Our Park Interpreter will teach you the basics and we will go to find one cache together in the park. To participate, you must have a smartphone or tablet with the geocaching app downloaded and a FREE account created. http://www.geocaching.com Please prepare for the weather. Meet Park Interpreters at the Interpretive Center, then be prepared for a 1-mile walk on Mountain View Trail.
