THE GERBIL CACHE - NJ'S OLDEST CACHE

On December 16, 2006, the NNJC officers met in the parking lot of Ramapo Reservation with the goal of placing special geocoin vouchers inside the Gerbil Cache (GCC8) to give something back to the geocaching community. This special geocoin was to commemorate the very first geocache placed in New Jersey on November 25, 2000. The goal was to physically place 100 special geocoin vouchers into the Gerbil Cache, so that when a cacher finds the cache, they can take and redeem the voucher for the limited Gerbil Cache geocoin.

The project was a huge success, with the last voucher found on June 2nd, 2007. Congratulations to everyone who made the hike up into Ramapo Mountains to find New Jersey's oldest geocache, and was rewarded by NNJC with a limited edition Gerbil Cache geocoin.

Cache of the Month
Because NNJC exists to help promote geocaching in northern New Jersey on behalf of YOU, the GEOCACHERS, we want to make sure you have a voice in YOUR club!

We want to know what caches out there are deserving of designation as NNJC's Cache of the Month. The only criteria are that it has to be located in northern New Jersey, and was placed during that month. Please send all nominations to topcache@nnjc.org, along with a description of your experience and why you feel it's the Cache of the Month.


Photos & Videos
We also want to include your caching photos and videos to highlight your experiences in northern New Jersey. Please send submissions to media@nnjc.org along with a descriptive blurb or caption.
