Jun 02 - Sep 06 June 2nd - Sept 6, 2010 The Wildling Art Museum in Los Olivos

The Wildling Art Museum has hidden 30 special geo-caches around the Santa Ynez Valley.  Using your  GPS technology, the Wildling invites you to search the Valley in this unique and fun game to support the Museum.  Hunt for the 30 marked cans, each containing a unique slip of paper, between June 2 and Sept. 6.  Fun for the whole family, spend summer days collecting slips from the different caches and become eligible to enter our cash-prize raffle (18 and older) or drawing for a cuddly "Wildling" fox stuffed animal (17 and under).  Each grouping of 10 different slips allows you to either purchase a $5 raffle ticket or enter the drawing.  Our jackpot is primed with $50 and the top-winning ticket will receive 10 percent of the growing Cache-Ca$h Jackpot Prize! For more info go to the Wildling Website.
