GPB IN THE COMMUNITY

Join GPB for a Geocaching Adventure to Discover Georgia Icons

This summer, inspired by the PBS series Iconic America: Our Symbols and Stories with David Rubenstein, we’re exploring icons across the state and invite you to join in the fun!

There are so many people, places, monuments, symbols and natural wonders that make Georgia who and what we are. We’ve highlighted just a few of the many Georgia icons across the state on our website at gpb.org/icon.

Check them out and let us know what you think! Whether you visit a spot in your town, plan a road trip or take a virtual scavenger hunt, we hope you will take some time to learn about icons that make Georgia unique.

Geocaching is a fun way to explore with friends, family or even on your own. We’ve teamed up with the Georgia Geocacher’s Association to highlight some Georgia icons through this real-world, outdoor adventure that is happening all the time, all around the world. To play, participants use the Geocaching mobile app and/or a GPB device to navigate to cleverly hidden containers called geocaches.
