It’s hard to believe we’re already in the last quarter of the year, as the amount of daylight dwindles and the leaves begin to cover our lawns, it’s a reminder the end of the year is close-by. Soon the goblins and ghouls will be visiting to get their fill of sugar coated goodies and Tom will be visiting riding his platter to our tables. It’s also become a tradition for the MGS to close the year with the Maryland Geocaching Society Holiday Swap. This year it will be held at the American Legion in Hampstead, Maryland on Sunday December 11th at 1 PM. There will be a potluck lunch/dinner followed by a gift exchange with an MGS twist. So please come out and join us to end another great event year for the MGS and to share some holiday cheer with your fellow geocachers.

New Germany State ParkThe hot summer temperatures are beginning to subside and the trees will soon begin to transform into a plethora of colors. It’s the time of year to pack the camping gear and head westward to the Maryland Geocaching Society Fall Picnic. This year it will be held on October 8th at New Germany State Park in Grantsville, MD. The event will be held in an indoor venue so weather won’t be a factor, we are very appreciative to the staff at New Germany for allowing us use of the Lake House in exchange for a Geocaching 101 Presentation to be held prior to the start of the picnic. Also be on the lookout for a night before bonfire event, be sure to make your camping reservations using Reserve America to assure you have a spot at the campground. Look forward to seeing everyone during our yearly visit to the western part of the state.

maryland-geocaching-society-cito-2011

Come join the Maryland Geocaching Society in an effort to give back a little to the environment and parks in which we enjoy our hobby of geocaching. The Maryland Geocaching Society CITO 2011 event will be held this year on September 10th at Pocomoke River State Park Shad Landing in Snow Hill, Maryland. The MGS has reserved the Sassafras Camp Site on the Blue Heron Loop for the night before the CITO for all those that wish to camp.

We will be doing a park clean-up followed by a potluck lunch in one of the park pavilions generously donated to the MGS for the day.

We’ll have a few raffle items available and also for the first time in the park, new geocaches!.
Additional information can also be found in the MGS Forums I hope to see everyone at the CITO!
