- I think that's was too expensive. See if there is a senior center centrally located. We have one in St. Peters and it costs nothing. Another option might be high schools and middle schools. I know that the St. Charles county library district is still free. The same rules apply, no eating or drinking. We can also see about Maritz conference center. They seem to allow us to have large scout meetings there. Perhaps they will do the same. Subjects I would like to see covered are... Advanced Features of GPSr How to use UTM on a map with your GPSr Geocaching without a GPSr Proper caching ettiquet Fun games for children using a GPSr (We all know how much fun geocaching is, are there other things we can do?) Different formats explained (UTM, NAD, WGS, etc...) Advanced Map skills Definitions and terminology in the geocache world. Thanks Rich for all your hard work. I will see you next Tuesday night..
