Geotalk podcast

Darren’s April podcast has a wonderful wrap up of the oz mega wagga event. Including many interviews with cachers from all over. At the end of the podcast there is a teaser for next month. Particularly “a prankster at the oz mega”. Without giving too much away, let’s say, Darth trader doesn’t like eclipse mint containers on guard rails.

Geocaching in the Media

Geocaching has been recently featured on ABC radio 1233. Paul Bevan spoke to a number of Geocachers on his drive time radio program on 8th April 2010. This included our own Big Matt.

Anthony Scully has written an article featuring geocaching which also includes a link to this website. See the article at the ABC website.

The interest in Geocaching comes from their own treasure hunt on the Saturday morning radio show. You can check it out at the Newcastle Treasure Hunter.

15 April 2010 – Anthony Scully posted this on the HAVOC facebook page
Hi everyone. Here’s a link to a story for 1233 ABC Newcastle which led me to Hunter Geocachers. I will be updating it after Paul Bevan’s follow-up interviews with National Parks. It would be great to see what Hunter Region Tourism Organisation makes of Essex County Council’s employment of a full-time geocaching person, …and the recent big turnout at Wagga Wagga.

HUNTER PART OF GLOBAL HIDE AND SEEK

HUNTER PART OF GLOBAL HIDE AND SEEK.

Some of you may not have seen this. This was shown on the news just before the easter school holiday in 2009. I saw it and took the kids out the next day with the iPhone. It was my start in Geocaching, and as they say the rest is history.
