Burwell Community Cleanup Campaign Spring CITO Cache In Trash Out Event

This cache has been archived.

GCZ Team: This was the second CITO we had organised and it was another great success with even more attendees! Many black bin bags were filled, and the weather was really fine and warm for us. The BCCC had won a local award, and it was nice to meet up in the local pub after the CITO and share of the Easter Egg prize! We managed to get all the litter pickers back to Helen! Thanks again everyone who attended - we hope to organise a couple of these per year with the BCCC, so with luck the next one may be in the Autumn and coincide with CITO week again! Watch the Burwell space!

Geocache Description:

A Geocaching CITO to help Burwell Community Cleanup Campaign in their monthly project to clear litter from the village

The new official Groundspeak CITO 2017 souvenir will be available for anyone attending a CITO event during the week of April 22-30.


What is it about?

Burwell Community Cleanup Campaign (BCCC) was launched in September 2016 and looks for volunteers to help with litter picking in the village between 10.00 and 12.00 noon, usually on the last Saturday of every month (NB this month it is on the fourth Saturday). The first of their days was in September 2016, and the second cleanup day on 29 October included our first geocaching CITO event (GC6VAAN). This will be our second CITO event, and we hope once more to work with the BCCC so as geocachers we can help the Campaign.

What we can do:

Geocachers can work together with this community group (which has the backing and support of Burwell Parish Council) to improve the outdoor environment in the village. If you can help, please do come along - litter pickers and binbags provided (we suggest you bring gloves and drinks!)

When:

10.00 to 12.00 noon 22 April 2017

Where to Park:

There is a small amount of on-street parking nearby and we have also been offered parking at The Fox public house (see Parking co-ordinates below) with kind permission of the landlord. This is a very short walk away from where we need to meet. 

Where to Meet:

Meet at Burwell Parish Council's Jubilee Reading Room, where we will get our instructions from the Campaign organisers who have given permission for the CITO event.

Before or after:

There are three pubs in the village which serve food at lunchtimes, along with a chippy and a chinese takeaway if you want some lunch afterwards, and there are over 25 geocaches in and around the village including Traditional, Multi, Puzzle, Wherigo and Letterbox types which can be included in any caching plans!
