Geocache Description:

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, the 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.

Imagine hundreds or even thousands of geocachers working in their own communities on the same day. Every event may be local, but together our efforts create a truly global impact.

The CITO Across the World! goal is:

50+ Events across US states
13+ Events in Canada (one in every province and territory)
50+ Events in other countries

That brings us to Oregon! We want to take the next step, and we are inviting the worldwide community of geocachers to help clean up our game board. What better place to do this than right here in Bend at Drake Park?

By attending this event, you'll also earn your official CITO 2026 Season 2 souvenir (which runs from September 1 through November 30)!

📍 When & Where

Date: Saturday, September 19, 2026
Time: 9:00 AM – 10:00 AM
Location: Drake Park (Bend, OR)
Meeting Point: Gather at the posted coordinates at 9:00 AM.
The Plan: After a quick briefing at the staging area, we will fan out to clean up the park grounds and surrounding public spaces along Mirror Pond, returning to the staging area by 11:00 AM to consolidate trash.

🏞️ Why Drake Park?

Drake Park is a beautiful, central community hub right in downtown Bend, making it highly accessible for everyone. Because it frequently hosts community gatherings, our cleanup efforts will have a massive, visible impact on a heavily trafficked public space.
