A movement in South Carolina has succeeded in outlawing Geocaching and Letterboxing in their cemeteries, by reviewing and quoting certain cemetery cache logs to find any activities which supported their cause.

Link: Bill to ban Geocaching in South Carolina

Since most cemeteries are open only from sunrise to sunset, cache logs mentioning caching after sunset are prime target for their research. The proximity of caches to actual graves and various other activities they feel are inappropriate are also targeted.

As a result, both the cemetery cache/letterbox creator and the geocacher/letterboxer finder may be subject to official scrutiny, or even prosecution if this issue is sufficiently pressed, regardless of which state you are in.

Therefore, in an effort to preserve and self police our cemetery caching, we are encouraging everyone to closely abide by cemetery rules, to consider editing their cache pages accordingly, and scrutinize cache logs carefully.

Northwest Ohio geocachers who create cemetery or memorial gardens caches are also encouraged to edit their cache pages to include the following standard notice paragraph, along with the prefix "SQ - " in front of their cache name.


Please copy and paste (Ctrl-C & Ctrl-P) the following HTML code to your SQ cache page:
The "SQ" in the cache name above signifies Spirit Quest, a project by the Northwest Ohio Geocachers to distinguish those caches that are set in cemeteries and memorial gardens. This cache is part of that series created by NWOGEO members to highlight cemeteries or memorial gardens in the area. Please be respectful of the area, and observe their rules and posted hours which are typically sunrise to sunset. <br> For more information, please visit: <a href="http://www.NWOGEO.org/SpiritQuest/" target="_blank"> <b>www.NWOGEO.org/SpiritQuest/</b></a>
Please remember to check the HTML check box when you edit your page at Geocaching.com.

This is how the above HTML will appear on your SQ web page:
(Please copy the above block ONLY, NOT this block!)
