One Day Many Communities A World of Difference
North Central Florida edition of the geocaching World Cleanup Day. We'll assemble in the parking area of Hogtown Creek Headwaters Nature Park to grab a garbage bag then head out to clean the area. The terrain will range from one - four depending on where you choose to work. Bring your own grabber, gloves and/or tools if you want to remove Coral Ardisia. We'll provide water bottles.
Hogtown Creek Headwaters Nature Park 830-930 am
Two years ago georeyna a geocacher in Houston, TX asked a simple question - What could happen if geocachers around Texas came together on one day to make their communities cleaner? Based on that simple question, Texas Geocaching Association (TXGA) created an event named CITO Across Texas in conjunction with World Cleanup Day.
Geocachers throughout Texas held cleanup events on the third Saturday in September. Each event was locally organized, but together they became part of something much bigger. CITO Across Texas was born!
The results have been tremendous. During 2024 and 2025:
-
More than 50 CITO events were held across Texas.
-
More than 700 volunteers participated.
-
Thousands of pounds of trash were removed from parks, trails, waterways, neighborhoods, and other public spaces.
In 2026, we want to take the next step and we are inviting the worldwide community of geocachers to help clean up our game board. Together, we can turn dozens of local CITO events into one powerful worldwide statement
Let’s clean up our communities—and the world—one CITO at a time.
