The morning after the big game, join us for a CITO event the next morning at the University of Oregon! We’ll spend some time giving back to the campus community by picking up litter and helping keep this beautiful outdoor space clean. We’ll provide trash bags, donuts, and water for all attendees. Please bring your own gloves and any other trash-retrieval equipment you’d like to use. Come ready to meet fellow outdoor enthusiasts and leave UW a little better than we found it!

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.
Let’s clean up our communities—and the world—one CITO at a time.
