Geocache Description:

Ever wanted to get a T-5 CITO?  Would you like to help keep the Occoquan River and reservoir clean?  Great, have we got the event for you!  Join us at 10AM on 4/23/16.

This is a T-5 CITO.  A boat will be required.  Some may be available - check the announcements for those details.

On Saturday, April 23, launching at 10 a.m., come join fellow geocachers as we do a little early spring cleaning and pretty up the southern reaches of the occoquan water trail. This event could last several hours for folks paddling the whole southern portion of the river.

The launch

Last year community organizers pulled over 7,900 pounds of trash out of the Occoquan River, and with some good cacher elbow grease, perhaps this year we could remove even more!

We need kayakers, canoeists, and jon boaters to support this on-the-water conservation effort. Some kayaks and canoes may be available for loan by the Prince William County Parks and Recreation Department (at Lake Ridge Marina).

Gloves, trash bags, grabbers, water, and snacks will be provided, but good prepared cachers should bring their own as backups just in case, as well as sunscreen, flotation devices, etc.
