Association Géocaching Québec invites you to take part in the 12th edition of its annual BBQ, an event that has become a wonderful tradition within Quebec’s geocaching community. This year, the event will be even more special, as we will also be celebrating the 20th anniversary of the AGQ.
For two decades now, the AGQ has been bringing together geocaching enthusiasts, encouraging connections between geocachers, and helping promote this activity throughout Quebec. The annual BBQ is one of those special occasions where usernames become faces, field stories are shared over a meal, and the sense of community truly comes to life.
Whether you are new to geocaching, an experienced player, a long-time member, or simply curious about discovering the activity, you are welcome to join us. AGQ events are open to everyone and are meant to be friendly, accessible, and community-oriented.
For this 12th edition, we invite you to join us on Saturday, May 23, 2026, in Candiac, at Parc de la Tortue. On the program: BBQ, geocaching discussions, trackable exchanges, reunions, discoveries, and a few surprises to mark the Association’s 20th anniversary.
This day will also be an opportunity to take concrete action for the environment. Before the BBQ, the AGQ invites you to participate in the CITO event “Let’s Clean Up Parc de la Tortue”, which will take place from 9:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. This activity will help clean up the site and leave the park in better condition for everyone. A group photo will be taken at 10:45 a.m. with the results of the cleanup. If possible, please bring your gloves and a few bags. The logbook will be available throughout the CITO.
In addition to helping protect the environment, your participation in the CITO will allow you to earn the CITO 2026 – Season 1 souvenir on Geocaching.com.
BBQ 12.0 and the CITO therefore make for a full and meaningful day: a moment to give back to the community and the environment, followed by a festive gathering to celebrate our shared passion and the AGQ’s 20th anniversary.
