Geocaching is an activity involving accurate navigation in the countryside in order to find hidden objects. It is greatly facilitated by the use of Global Positioning System receivers, which calculate their location by receiving signals from a series of geostationary satellites. The Scout Troop has become very involved with geocaching. The Feltham Masonic Lodge has generously made a donation to our funds, which has enabled us to buy several GPS receivers for use by the Group. The photograph below shows a group of Scouts with one of the receivers and what they have recovered from a location.
