Matthews, NC – Things to Do
Matthews seems to always have something going on! Some Earth Day fun for the whole family!
Matthews Earth Day Geocaching Adventure
Have you ever gone geocaching? It’s a combination of a nature walk and a treasure hunt. Using a hand held GPS unit you track down caches (containers with a log book and small objects) that other people have hidden in public places. Once you find it, log your find in the log book, take an object from the cache and put one of your own in it. Finding the caches range from easy to extremely challenging.
A great way to start is to go to Matthews Earth Day Geocaching Adventure. You do need your own hand held GPS unit. Get started at Matthews Community Center between 6PM and 8PM Friday, April 24th. Your team will be given a list of coordinates for eight caches that are hidden within the town of Matthews, and a 15 minute tutorial. Then your team has all evening and the following morning to locate the caches. Check in at the Matthews Earth Day Celebration the next day. There will be prizes!
Matthews Earth Day Celebration
This is the big event. Matthews Earth Day Celebration, held at Stumptown Park, Saturday, April 25th, from 10AM to 1PM, features live music, hands-on crafts, and children’s activities. Learn how to get started with composting, or to build your own backyard habitat.

It is supposed to be a spectacularly beautiful Carolina weekend, low 80’s and clear skies-weather nice enough to move to Charlotte!
