Mission Statement:The Georgia Geocachers Association (GGA), the oldest Geocaching club in the world, is a group of people whose purpose is to encourage, publicize and support Geocaching in the state of Georgia. We meet monthly to share stories and to develop the sport within Georgia. We have a state-wide scope, supporting both individual cachers and regional clubs. Upcoming Events:
Going Caching 2018
Experience legends and lore that will give you goose bumps as you geocache your way around secret locations in the city of Rome, Georgia. Travel back to the 1890's and don your best steampunk ghost-hunting attire as you attempt to tackle unsolved cases and other haunted mysteries. If you're more of a restless spirit, appear as a chilling Victorian apparition. Visit local sites that have inspired legendary tales of the paranormal, escape from a haunted Victorian parlor and explore fabulously spooky ruins while geocaching in Barnsley Gardens. We dare you to attend. (For more information about this mega event, please refer to the geocaching.com cache-page.)

You and your family are invited to the Sweet 16 annual GeoCaching Event by the Lacy Family. This year's event is being held at Victoria Bryant State Park near Royson, GA in pioneer campground #1.
