Joy in the Summer: alumni UBC Summer Series is a lighthearted, inspiring, three-part podcast that presents a summer of joyfulness and fun as told by UBC alumni; wine, music and geocaching specialists; and stay-in-the-neighborhood athletes, romantics and travelers.  While the series, running from June through September, may be virtual, the adventure, discovery and culinary findings are very real.  Small groups meet in parks to enjoy wine tastings; geo-cachers venture through the North Shore mountains, Mud Bay, Squamish and further afield; virtual runners race from the UBC Vancouver to the UBC Okanagan campus; and, at any time, the glorious and uplifting sounds of music are available on the alumni UBC website.

In this episode: Seeking and Moving: Geocaching and a Virtual Race, is our second episode, the adventure segment.  Divided in two parts, the first half explores the world of geocaching, as explained and experienced by Jenn Sava, Senior Manager, Business Development, Geocaching (the company); and by UBC Alumnus Matthew Le Page, who lives in Surrey and has found over 15,000 geocaches.  The second portion of the episode features two women on the Summer Series virtual run, Vicky Tran, a UBC alumna who has written a witty article about her exercise routine and soon-to-be alumna Olivia Zywicki.
