They say everything’s bigger in Texas—and this year, that includes CITO! What began as CITO Across Texas is growing into a worldwide day of community action.
On September 19, 2026, CITO Across the World will unite geocachers at more than 150 locally organized CITO Events around the globe, all with one goal: caring for the places where we play. We spoke with BE Viking, one of the geocachers behind the effort, about how a Texas-sized idea grew into a global initiative.
For the past few years, we’ve caught up with Marcellus Cadd (atreides) of Geocaching While Black to hear where geocaching has taken him lately, and this year, there’s a lot to talk about.
We talked with him about his latest travels, balancing community service with caching for yourself, Treasure collecting, the enduring appeal of Traditional Caches, and what he wishes he could tell his 2018 geocaching self.

On a mid-August morning, Geocaching HQ co-founders Jeremy Irish, Elias Alvord, and Bryan Roth met at Seattle’s Gas Works Park, just a short distance from HQ. They carried paddleboards into the waters of Lake Union, enjoying sunny skies and views of the Seattle skyline and the famous Space Needle. In some ways, the setting was reminiscent of the trio’s lake-based meetings during the very early days of their now 25-year partnership. Except this time, a crew was shooting video from shore while a drone filmed them from above!
