Pacific Lamprey Challenge

When the US Fish and Wildlife Department wanted to create a challenge cache series to educate the public about the Pacific Lamprey, they wanted to give participants something to remember the experience by. They were looking for a gift that would be meaningful to Geocachers, but which is available on a budget. They selected Pathtags!

The only way to get their beautiful tag is by completeing the cache series, located just Southwest of Olympia, Washington.

Here are all six mystery cache sites:

The overall goals of this program are:

Educate the public about the Pacific Lamprey
Educate the public about the Chehalis River Basin and the partners working to conserve/restore it.
Connect People With Nature via geocaching

Walton Robotics FIRST Team 2974 Pathtag

FIRST is a nonprofit organization founded by famed inventor Dean Kamen to promote Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) careers among young people. The vehicle for making this happen is a program of competitive robotics tournaments for children as young as Kindergarten through high school.

In 2013, Walton Robotics Team 2974 decided to do something special to leave a lasting impression on the people they "crossed paths with" at their competition. They created a Pathtag to give to other attendees!

Lisa Malice, one of the team's mentors, said "The pathtags were a big hit with the students because it was a unique give-away and because of the creative approach to spreading our message. Geocachers I met loved it, but the muggle families I talked with were really intrigued! We are starting to see log ins pop up on our tag map, including the ones I sent to Australia and Oregon to collectors who agreed to place them in geocaches."

"I am just amazed at the response to my first tag. It is AMAZING to me that all the folks that I have traded with here have traded honestly and promptly. What a great group of people to trade tags with. I am not hooked on this Pathtag thing and am looking forward to making a second tag. Kudos to the Pathtag Community!!"

"I was introduced to Pathtags by my mother and father and even more at The Midwest Geobash of 2009. I had a set of two tags made for my past Hazard--Perry County Tour IV Weekend Geocaching Event and sold some of my tags to other geocachers in my area as well as in other places of the United States and other countries and then began trading them here on pathtags.com. I enjoy and have enjoyed trading my tags with several collectors of tags in the US as well as in other countries. My wife daughter and I have been trading with several collectors on here and have worked on getting a design made for each one of us. We will be ordering them and will want to trade them real soon thanks to Tekkguy for the designs. I love pathtags. I almost like them better than coins and have enjoyed every minute of collecting them and trading them."

Kentucky Trio

"Who would ever have thought last year when I had my first tag produced that I would be this addicted to pathtags? I have taken on an extra job to pay for my addiction, and now I will own more than 25 tags by the end of 2009. Every time I think I may need help, I realize how much joy those tags bring to me and everyone else. Thank you for an amazing product! "

Stamp's Retired Tags

"We just got our first Path Tags. They are great! We can't wait to start leaving them in geocaches. They got here in plenty of time for us to take them to Midwest GeoBash (2009) in July. Thanks for the great service."

Ginsu Macloed

"All I have to say is that my new tags look AWESOME! I even received them sooner than I had estimated, which is great too! I can't stop myself from admiring them every chance I get. Thanks so much!"

"Just letting you know that my pathtags arrived safely and I am over the moon with them. Being an Australian I felt that my first should be an Australian icon and I love how it has turned out and everyone I have shown it to has loved it. Thank you."

Mundoo

"This tag turned out better than I expected. I wanted a tag to give to those I want to thank. I'll leave it with the tip at restaurants, give it to the store clerk, the mail carrier, event hosts, and of course my favorite traders. I hope they like it as much as I do. Thanks!!!"

R/Gbots

"This was our first tag, and we weren't making it easy! We are picky and knew just what we wanted it to be like, just weren't sure how they could do it. They did it though. We were so excited when we finally saw the finished product. They turned out fabulous!"

Boltons

"I was really amazed how wonderful this tag turned out. Thanks again for such a quality job and fast production. I cant wait to start trading these and already have my next tag in mind for an event I am hosting. T-Hunter (thunter16148) Continental, Ohio"
