Geocache Weekend coming up at Lake Cumberland

JAMESTOWN, Ky. (AP) — An outdoor sport known as geocaching will provide a weekend full of activities at Lake Cumberland State Resort Park this week.

The 10th annual Earth Day Geocache Weekend starts with registration Friday evening and continues through Sunday.

Caching starts at 8 a.m. Saturday and Sunday and ends at noon. The Parks Department says participants will meet briefly each morning to disseminate coordinates and cache packets. Coordinates may be downloaded to GPS for those participants who have a USB cable or manually downloaded otherwise.

Geocaching involves the use of GPS to hide and seek containers, called "geocaches" or "caches."

Registration is $20, or $30 for two people. A registration form is available at http://1.usa.gov/1OoDBCJ .
