Have you found a cache lately? Have you placed a cache lately? Winter seems to slow the flow for geocaching. We have challenged ourselves to place at least one more winter friendly cache before the end of February and we hope that will help to reignite the fire of your desire to cache. Perhaps you, too, can add a cache for others to find.

2013 Brandon Earth Day CITO

Where: Princess Park, Brandon, MB
Date: April 21, 2013
Time: Noon until 4 pm

Spring and the melting snow reveal the need for a bit of cleaning in the parks and other green spaces around us. As geocachers, we enjoy these public spaces and we take some responsibility for their maintenance. "Cache in trash out" means leaving an area better than we found it. Join us at the community Earth Day celebration in Princess Park to sign the event log and then grab a garbage bag and go to work on the public space of your choice.
