Geocache Description:
One Day. Many Communities. A World of Difference.
A little over 2 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 is 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.
We will be working on cleaning up trash around Woods Lake. Bring your work gloves, boots, trash grabbers and/or any other TOTTS you think you might need. Trash bags will be provided. Just like many of our previous CITOs, I will be cooking hot dogs to be enjoyed after the clean up. We will provide water as well. Bring your lawn chairs and any side you would like to share.
