Time: 9:30 am to 10:30 am

I am hoping we can clean up along Pembina Highway between Markham Road and Bohemier Trail... Lots of garbage there.
I will provide garbage bags. Please bring your own gloves, Mr. Reachie and hoops.
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.
Now for the MORE part...
I have been geocaching for 20 years and VERY soon I will have lived on this Earth 🌎 for 70 years... so let's keep it clean and celebrate!
There might even be sweet treats 🧁
