Come join the
Northeast Nebraska Geocachers
Adopt-A-Highway
CITO Spring 2011
This is the second cleanup for our State of
Nebraska Adopt-A-Highway section! Volunteer to help keep our
state clean. You will also help raise awareness of our great
hobby and all that Geocaching stands for!!
Our section is a two-mile stretch of Highway 275
on the western edge of Norfolk from mile marker 71-73.
This event will take place on International Cache
In Trash Out Weekend! We will meet at 9:00 am on Saturday,
April 30, 2011. The event coordinates will take you to
Jerry's Auto Sales on Highway 275, where they have graciously
allowed us to park and stage our event. The cleanup section
also begins here. We will have a safety briefing prior to
beginning the cleanup. The Nebraska Department of Roads
provides us with safety vests, trash bags, signage, and will haul
away the trash after the cleanup. You should bring protective
clothing, heavy-duty gloves, sunscreen, bug spray, drinking water,
and a "grabber tool" if you don't want to constantly bend over.
The length of the event will depend on how many
people participate, but should be about 2 hours. Everyone is
welcome to participate, but those under 15 must have adult
supervision. People unable to walk long distances or confined
to a wheelchair can help in the staging area. Sorry, no dogs
are allowed. Please post a "will attend" so we know how many
safety vests will be needed. Also, please note, by
participating, you agree to do so at your own risk. The State
of Nebraska and event hosts are not responsible for injury or
damages.
As if helping the environment wasn't enough
incentive, there will be some new cache(s) placed in the area that
will be available to you prior to publication!
Be sure to join us after the cleanup for the
"Join Us for a Cup of Joe Series - April 2011" Event!
