SEPTEMBER 9TH
Listlady’s finally stepping out of her wallflower box and hosting an event. One of my favorite things about geocaching is making swag. Sometimes I have as much fun with that as I do finding smileys. So I thought I’d make my first foray into event hosting by having a SWAG Party. There will be lots of examples and lots of supplies if you wish to try your hand. And since swag is made to be shared, if you have any homemade swag you’d like to share or teach you are encouraged to bring it along.
With a little luck I might even be able to make this smiley number 1,000! 😄
SEPTEMBER 16TH
Note, you will have to drive through the park in order to get your vehicle to GZ.
Details: Who: All
What: CITO in Highland Park
When: Sunday, 16 September 2018 starting at 1:00pm. We will clean for 1 hour. At 2:00 we will all make our way to the parking area for a group photo with the trash we collected.
Where: At the listed coordinates
Why: Because we are geocachers, and we care! (Plus, we get a smiley, get to hang with fun people, and get another CITO under our belts for those of us that geek out on stats!) This will be our chance to CITO prior to the snow and ice coming, so let’s get together and enjoy the afternoon.
