Treknschmidt: There are a few people that still need to log this one, so go ahead and do so but its time to put the listing to bed. Thank you everyone for a really great and rewarding day, you all worked hard at Giving Back. I can't wait to see this area in 15 years from now especially with the addtional 450 trees you planted today.

Geocache Description:

CITO hosted in partnership with the Grand River Conservation Authority
Snyder's Flats - Saturday April 16th, 9:00am to Noon
Bloomingdale, Ontario

What better way to give back than planting trees and helping to preserve the natural beauty of our outdoor resources? Please join us for a few hours and build a legacy that will last for years to come. Listed coordinates are for parking and meeting area. GRCA forester will be on hand to assist with proper planting technique. End time of Noon is based on minimum number of attendees. Children are welcome with adult supervision.

The designated planting site is located at Snyder's Flats. We will be planting a mixture of seedlings, saplings and potted stock. A trowel will be sufficient for the smaller seedlings and a shovel for the larger. Please note that Snyder's is an old gravel extraction site so the terrain has been adjusted to reflect the possibility of some tough digging.

** Please meet at 9:00am sharp for some announcements and introductions. The fine folks at Becker Bros have once again graciously donated coffee and donuts for the event and the use of the mobile command center. CITO will run rain or shine (an alternate date of Sunday May 1st has been set aside in the event the frost is not yet out of the ground). Don't forget your shovels. Everyone is welcome **

What to bring:
Gloves
Shovel and/or Trowel
Clothing appropriate for weather, planting will take place Rain or Shine
Water - we'll try to have enough water on hand for all the volunteers but bringing additional water is a good idea
Camera - remember to take pictures and upload them with your log.
