Events
South Australia is a state that holds many events. Given the large area of the state, various areas often hold events for local cachers to gather. These events are open for anyone to attend, and are often visited by cachers from far away (including overseas).
A regular event on the Adelaide calendar is the Pub Lunch, which is held roughly every 6 weeks, and allows cachers to gather at a central location in the city for a feed, and a chat. If you are planning a trip to Adelaide, it may pay to get in contact with The Barramnundi's who organise the lunches, to let them know when you will be here, and often the event can be scheduled for the time that you are here. An example of this is Pub Lunch 17 which was attended by MaxB all the way from America
Other events are held regularly across the state, including the south east where they often hold SECS (South East Caching Society) events like dinners, or picnics. The Riverland is also home to some events each year, with events like the Riverland Rendezvous being held a couple of times a year. With a recent surge in cachers on the Yorke Peninsula, there are plans for regular events in the area, the first of which was the Beach Picnic Among the Pyramids
The easiest way to see if there are any events coming up in the near future is to check out South Australia's Newest Published Caches. If you are visiting a certain area, and you're unsure of whether there is an event on or not, ask in the South Australian part of the GCA forum, and let us know when you will be here, and chances are someone will be happy to meet up with you!
Shops/Handy Info
For all your mapping & GPSr requirements visit CartoGraphics, which is located just south of the city and open 6 days a week. Not only will you get great service and a wide range of products, but you can also speak with an experienced geocacher,Alex about your requirements for trips not just in South Australia, but all over the country
