This event is a joint venture with Return of the Natives, RON
will be providing all the plants and equipment for planting
including gloves. RON also was able to get Whole Foods to provide
great snacks, juice and water for this event. All you have to do is
put on some clothes you can get dirty and come join the 40
odd (double meaning on odd 
) geocachers that have already
committed to showing up.
UPDATE 12/2/05 10:30PM
The new tentative plan is to meet up at 10 o’clock @ the posted
coordinates. Once it looks like everyone is there who’s coming,
we’ll head out as a group down the dirty rec trail, CITO-ing along
the way. Eventually (0.75 miles) we’ll arrive at our turn around
point where Biggeeks Jen and Luke will be stationed with snacks,
water, juice, and geocoins to trade for trash. They’re weird like
that . There will also be a dumpster that has been rented for the
event stationed at the turn around point.
After the turn around point we can head back
to the picnic area to admire everyone’s geo-treasures. This would
also be a good time to join the native plant planting that will be
going on. I’ll also be bringing an ammo can to load up with TBs and
what have you, I’ll place the cache after the event, probably
outside the park.
After we're done cleaning and planting, we can all congregate
around the food and start telling some lies about our misadventures
geocaching. If anyone has any neat geocaching related trinkets or
collections, feel free to bring them to show off. I'll be bringing
the fabled Illuminati Diamond, the FTF prize from Touchstone's epic
Illuminati series.
Non-cachers will also be attending this event under a different
announcement by RON which advertised that attendees would be able
to learn about geocaching, so please be ready to share your love of
our hobby with some newbies.
Please Post the number of individuals in your team that will be
attending the event, if you can can make it.
"Can’t wait to see you all there! Look for the 3 geeks in
matching CITO shirts…that’ll be some of Team biggeeks! Oh, and
don't forget to click on the
aerial map I created from Google earth" – Biggeek Ben
Here's what the weather is looking like as of Thursday. At least
this is what I found on weatherunderground.com. I know we've got a
meteorologist in the CCGC, maybe she'll know better...but
RAIN OR SHINE biggeeks will be
out there!

dumpster will be dropped off:
