The year-round form of Easter egg hunting comes in the form of geocaching, an outdoor treasure hunting game in which participants use a global positioning system to find hidden caches or treasure in public locations.

Greene County Parks and Recreation’s “Cache Me If You Can” geocaching program is back for its fourth year in a row. Parks and Recreation Manager Pam Blaker is in charge of the geocaching program for Greene County.

“It is a very successful program,” Blaker said. “Each year we see new people participating both from the surrounding community as well as from across the state. We also had people as far away as Texas and Michigan complete the program.”

“Cache Me If You Can” showcases eight of the local recreation sites in Greene County. These locations are:

n Mon View Park, 377 Stoney Hill Road, Greensboro, PA 15338;

n Wana B Park, 355 Ceylon Road, Carmichaels, PA 15320;

n Greene River Trail, Greene Cove Trail Head, Millsboro, PA 15487;

n Greene River Trail Site 2, Old Crucible Mine Site, Crucible, PA 15325;

n Greene County Airport, 417 E. Roy Furman Highway, Waynesburg, PA 15370;

n Greene County Tennis Courts, 900 Rolling Meadows Road, Waynesburg, PA 15370;

n Greene County Fairgrounds (107 Fairgrounds Road, Waynesburg, PA 15370; and

n Alpha Aquatics Center (200 E. Roy Furman Highway, Waynesburg, PA 15370.

Participants are requested to fill out the “Cache Me If You Can” brochure that can be found on the Greene County Parks and Recreation website, www.co.greene.pa.us, with the pass codes that are located in each hidden cache. The brochure also includes clues of where the caches are hidden.

Participants are asked to send the codes along with their name, address, phone number and T-shirt size to the Department of Recreation (107 Fairgrounds Road, Waynesburg, PA 15370) or by email at pblaker@co.greene.pa.us to receive a “Cache Me If You Can” T-shirt.

The geocaching program will run until Dec. 31.
