Sunday, October 6th at 11:00AM at the Russian River Campground in Cooper Landing!
End summer in SouthCentral with a fun-filled weekend cleaning and camping trip starting in Girdwood and running down to the Russian River! This is the second running of a Hobo CITO series that was devised, developed, and planned in the GeocacheAlaska! forums last winter. The spring session was a great success, so we're going to end up the season by squeezing in one more frenzy of cleaning in between the tourist season and the rapidly approaching snow season. Let's get rid of some of that junk before it gets covered up for the winter!
This will be the third and final HOBO CITO site of this series and includes the campground itself. We will meet to sign in, register for door prizes, and get a work task briefing. If you can, please bring leather work gloves and a shovel or two; square point recommended. We will spend a couple hours picking up trash along the campground loop roads and cleaning the ash and debris from the campsite fire rings. Once the tasks are completed, we will meet again to consolidate the trash for a photo-op and then draw for door prizes (must be present to win). Remember that you get to add an additional raffle ticket to the bucket for each of the Hobo CITO events you attend!
After this CITO is finished and everyone has packed up their camping gear, you may accompany the group to a local eatery in Cooper Landing for an informal late lunch of some of the best BBQ in SouthCentral Alaska. So bring some $$$ for a sandwich!
Everyone is welcome and encouraged to attend this CITO event, even if you are not going to travel with the crew to clean up all 3 CITO sites or participate in the Saturday night camping. Many hands make light work. We look forward to seeing you there!
