Come on out and help us clean up the Boucher Forest as part of the Grand ménage de printemps de Gatineau on Sunday April 24th from 1:00pm until 4:00pm.
Meet at Parc des Jardins-Lavigne (by the 1st Aylmer banner) at 1:00pm to get started, signed in and receive your supplies (the city of Gatineau has donated garbage bags and rubber gloves). Geocachers will be separated (or separate themselves) into groups. These groups will be given a task cleanup site within the forest or around Parc de Jardins-Lavigne. I will stay around Parc des Jardins-Lavigne in case anyone is coming out a bit later to help.
Keep your eyes peeled for geocaches posted in this region just before the event, because "Cache In" is just as fun as "Trash Out"! Dress according to the weather, and with good working clothes, footwear and gloves. The clean up will be held on this day rain or shine!
At 4:00 PM return to the posted coordinates at Parc des Jardisn-Lavigne with your trash (if possible) for the group photo and a free prize draw!
Plenty of parking in the lot at Parc des Jardins-Lavigne or on nearby streets. Please do not block sidewalks or people's driveways.
There are at least seven caches find in the Boucher Forest, once you are done helping with the clean up. TB exchange box will be near the log book for those who want to drop off or exchange trackables.
Please note that the most direct way from the meeting point to the clean-up area is through an off-leash dog park and you might also encounter off-leash dogs in the forest itself.
