    Technology Day at Denver Botanic Gardens - July 31st

    My wife directed me to geocaching to do something fun for kids at Technology Day at Denver Botanic Gardens. So, you may ask, "What is Technology Day at Denver Botanic Gardens?" Technology Day is a celebration day to show off all the new technology either being put in place and/or will be in place at the Gardens. I lead a 32 person volunteer Technology Task Force at the Gardens. Our purpose is to be the driving force behind marrying technology with horticulture. Some examples of the technology being put in place is: Wifi for the entire campus, a new content enriched web site, RFID to track kids on campus, HD Videoconferencing, streaming video, security surveillance, and much much more. So, we need some help with creating something really fun for kids on this day. I used to do a lot of orienteering and geocaching looks really cool! Is there someone out there that can help me create some geocaching for this event and/or come up with something awesome to wow these kids? It is an all day event and we will have 23 companies showing off their technology. Our target audience size for the day is around 2500! Oh, and guess what, for anyone involved in technology, it is a FREE day! So, we have five weeks to come up with something. If it helps, I have NEC doing digital signage and bringing in flat panels for the day. For additional information on the Technology Task Force, please go to http://www.botanicgardens.org/content/gardens-tech-team. So, anyone out there that can help me?

    Thanks in advance!
