Glen Oak Park is a popular park in Peoria but unfortunately this area sees a lot of trash. We'll gather on April 20th in an effort to clean up some of this trash and claim the first of two CITO souveniors this year! I've worked with the Peoria Parks District to plan this event. We'll bag trash and move it to the dumpster near the service building at Glen Oak Park. TV's and tires should be placed next to (NOT in!) the dumpster. All participants will need to complete a special event waiver for the Peoria Parks District. I'll bring these to the event.
We'll be focusing our cleanup effort on the area east of Abington Street, in the vicinity of this event's Reference Point 1, as you head down the hill from the parking coordinates. This area can be steep with a fair amount of underbrush, which is reflected in the Terrain rating of this CITO cache.
There's also an alternative trash pick-up area, indicated by Reference Point 2. The terrain in this area is less challenging, allowing geocachers a lower Terrain-rated option, if desired.
