Providence Metropark.<br>

Our obligation is to pick up litter four times a year in our adopted highway

could end them in time to have lunch, with the exception of the August clean-up

Those dates look good to me. I have never participated in a cito event before, and look forward to being at one this year.
I am an amazed cacher!

Looks like a winner.

I know my eyes are going bad, but is that print very small, or is it just me? :)

I might have a problem with the 2nd and 3rd ones(not sure when the music fests fall this year yet), but the spring and fall ones look good.

I have added "Rain Dates" to the actual Event Page which should be posted soon.

The rain date for the 1st event will be the following Sunday due the "Geocache 101" presentation to be held on that Saturday. The rain dates for the 2nd through 4th events are the following Saturdays for now.
