CITO 2023 Season 1 -
Bike Path Cleaning
Cache In Trash Out® (CITO) is an environmental initiative the geocaching community
supports. Since 2002, CITO has enabled geocachers to beautify and restore natural and urban spaces. This year's
CITO dates are: Season 1 (Wednesday, March 1 through Wednesday, May 31, 2023) and Season 2 (Friday, September 1
through Thursday, November 30, 2023).
This CITO is the opportunity to earn the souvenir for the first CITO Season of 2023. I
would like to suggest a trash collection along the Blackhawk Bike Path; I run along it sometimes, and when the
snow melted last week you could see that there were some spots there and there along the path that could use a
cleaning.
So, the plan is to head West from Post Farm Park, but depending on the attendance, we
may create another group to go East. We will collect any trash we see on our walk and that we can carry along. I
will map the different trash cans along the bike path and add them to this listing as waypoint later, so that we
know where we can drop off what will be collected. There are a few geocaches as well along the bike path; feel
free to stop and find them during the CITO.
Bags will be provided, but please bring your gloves and if you have any your trash
pickers. See you all on April 15th!
