The St. Clair Region Conservation Authority is hosting a Geocaching Adventure at the Lorne C. Henderson Conservation Area near Petrolia on Sunday, September 8 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
This is a chance to explore the Conservation Area with a “Geocaching Twist”.
Geocaching is a high-tech treasure hunt which uses a global positioning system (GPS) unit to locate a hidden cache (treasure).
This event is for both seasoned geocachers and for those that just want to see what geocaching is all about.
Staff will be available to provide the basics to get you started.
A limited number of GPS units will be available to borrow.
The Lorne C. Henderson Conservation Area is located 4 km west of Petrolia at 3653 Petrolia Line.
The St. Clair Region Conservation Authority is located in southwestern Ontario and includes the Sydenham River watershed and smaller watersheds draining directly into southern Lake Huron, the St. Clair River and northeastern Lake St. Clair.
The Conservation Authority implements programs to reduce the risk to life and property from flooding and erosion and promote water and land stewardship, forestry, wildlife habitat creation, conservation education, and outdoor recreation.
