Welcome to the Northern Virginia Geocaching Organization!
The Northern Virginia Geocaching Association (NoVAGO) is a group of Northern Virginia geocachers who are committed to promoting safe, responsible, and environmentally friendly geocaching. We welcome the involvement and cooperation of park management and government to work with us in the development of this activity both to benefit both geocachers and parks alike. The NoVAGO also provides a way for people to come together to organize regional activities and events (see the Event Calendar) that will promote the credibility of the sport and bring families together in an outdoor environment.
Please spend some time on our site. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us! |

 | Swelter at the Shelter Event & Silent Auction |
 TooWheelin writes "The NoVAGO Swelter at the Shelter Summer Event is fast approaching, 20 July 08 is right around the corner and will be here before you know it. The event promises to be a “doozie” as all NoVAGO events are; plenty of caches to hunt, great food, super people, a raffle, and back by popular demand…our NoVAGO Annual Silent Auction.
Please indicate your attendance and whatever potluck food item you may be bringing on the event page
The Silent Auction catalog (it will be updated as additional item donations are received) can be found in the NoVAGO forums in this thread.
The Silent Auction is the only method NoVAGO uses to generate funds to operate for the coming year. Check it out, there are already some great items on auction, and more will be added."
