Waukesha currently has 45 city parks and if you have done the
geocaches in the area, you have been to many. Please help us give
back with this service project. Our volunteer efforts will help
preserve the beauty of these outdoor spaces.

CHECK IN: Between 1:00-1:30 PM
LOCATION: E.B. Shurts Environmental Center
Geocachers will be asked in sign in using the City of Waukesha
Recreation program form. (We are working on getting a link to
download prior).
Our task list currently includes 12 parks so we would like to
divide up sending groups to each of the locations.
CHECK BACK: Between 3:00-3:30 PM
The Tapps will be working on a series of temporary (possible new
regular) caches in-conjunction with this event.
It is suggested that you bring work gloves to pick up trash.
Please post a "will attend" note below,
indicate your group size, so we have an idea of how many geocachers
will be joining us.
Special thanks to Parks Supervisor,
Peter Traczek
and the Recreation Services Manager, Pat Grulke for allowing us to
host this event.
This event page will be updated as needed. Updates will
appear here:

Recreation runs a program there in the summer and it really needs a
clean up)
Updates as of Monday, April 17 We are watching the weather
report and will post a note if we will need to reschedule due to
expected bad weather. We are also working with Parks &
Recreation to narrow down our parks to clean list. There could be a
drawing or two for donated items. More to come ..
