Sharing your Love of things expressed on rocks & hidden among the community for others to find & share. PLEASE SHARE by REHIDING. Paint & hide your own.
Ok, so the idea behind this group is to paint rocks and place them around town for the young (and the young at heart) to find. This is a fun, affordable way to get everyone's minds off the stresses of the world and make outdoor activities even more fun! When we first started, we had no rules, but as the group is growing I thought some guidelines could help us all out. So here goes!
1. If you find
a rock, please re-hide!
2. If you decide to keep please consider paing a rock to replace it!!
3. And last but not least, Please post a photo here, we love to see our rocks travel. We find it best to always wash rocks before painting. Even if store-bought. Acrylics, puffy paint, and spray paints work best. Putting "Post on VR Rocks!!! On FB" on the back gives you a better chance of seeing it posted. After paint dries, clear-coating them with polyurethane or spray mod podge will help keep them looking nice. Please keep the safety of the finder in-mind when hiding. Please keep rocks out of the way of lawn mowers. They will most definitely mess up your rock and could really hurt someone. Please do not hide inside stores. We don't want people to be accused of shoplifting. Please don't hide on baseball diamonds. Remember, we want to cause smiles, not injuries. 😁
Please do not disturb establishments that the rocks are hidden outside of. I hope I don't have to tell people not to sweep up all the rocks and just keep them for themselves. If people do this, they're missing the point
Most of all, have fun! Enjoy time with your family while teaching about how good it is to GIVE.
