Mission of the Month: September 2007

CYFERnet Travel Bug Race

Want to explore the planet vicariously and win a prize along the way? Then don’t miss the second-annual CYFERnet Travel Bug Race. This month, youth and adult teams can start touring the globe via their Travel Bug: a metal tag that allows contestants to follow their “hitchhiker” trinket.

Hitchhikers may include everything from silver coins to plush penguins. A feature of Geocaching—the Global Positioning System (GPS)-based adventure game—contestants place their trinket in an official geocache, register online and track their Travel Bugs as they move from cache to cache (i.e., logbook to logbook, place to place) in the real world. The more miles your bug travels, the greater your chances of winning.
