Cheeseburgers in Paradise gives geocachers an
opportunity to meet up with other geocachers, to put
faces with names, swap stories, eat good food and have
a good time. But more importantly it's your opportunity to
help your local community by making a donation to the
Northern Illinois Food Bank. The holidays have ended
and food donations drop dramatically yet some of our
neighbors are still hungry so here's your opportunity to
have fun geocaching and feel good about helping
others at the same time.
