GPS
Adventures


GPS technology is changing the way we live. It can be found in surprising places from automobiles to cell phones and is the backbone of the global treasure hunting game called Geocaching. Geo-what-ing? Geo-caching. Through Geocaching, more than three million people have found the treasure of reconnecting with family, community and nature in a meaningful way.

GPS Adventures is a life-sized maze exhibition introducing visitors to cutting-edge Global Positioning Systems (GPS) through Geocaching – a family friendly treasure hunting game. More than three million people around the world are on the hunt for nearly a half million hidden treasures. In addition to hidden booty, these geocachers are finding the real treasure: reconnecting with family, community and nature in a meaningful way.

Created by Groundspeak, the founders of geocaching.com, and Minotaur Mazes, GPS Adventures takes visitors on a mind-bending journey in search of their secret treasure city. Navigating around obstacles and deciphering mysterious codes are all part of the adventure ultimately inspiring visitors to get up off the couch and into the great outdoors in new and exciting ways.

To learn more about the exhibit, visit www.gpsmaze.com

Groundspeak will be hosting an onsite geocaching event on June 14th from 11:00 am -2 pm. We hope that you will join us!
