Earth Day CITO 2010- The Bluffs

[hunter-killer]

Kathy just mentioned she looked at Mech's photo of the "new pile" of garbage and recalls picking up that speaker, so this was dropped by a City employee, (bag broke ?) or it fell off the City vehicle.

[Mechman]

I went to go pick it up today, and it was already gone...I am happy again!

Can someone post a list of the cachers that were there? and the sponsors....

I've got a little video I've made but before I publish it I'd like to get the names of all the cachers that were there.

I so far have everyone that logged as attended, but was there someone there that has not logged?

[hunter-killer]

There were the new cachers that won the $75.00 dollar gift certificate as well as  a few more that I believe Q&A know. So there are others that were there that never posted there attendance

[Mechman]

First cut of the video is up on youtube....sorry about some of the credits being chopped off.  It does it during the conversion process.  When I play it in the editor (Windows Movie Maker) it looks fine!  Anyway, I'm trying to fix it....let me know if I missed anyone and I can add them...I just used the pictures and video that we took on our camera, so I apologize that not all that helped got shown.  If anyone opposes the use of their image, let me know and I can remove it.

[Mechman]

Ok I'll update the credits. Better look at the vid soon. I got an e-mail from youtube saying that there "may" be copyright material. Not sure how long it will be able to stay up.

[Wandering_Man]

Video looks great mech! Love the combo of still photos and video in it. I'm assuming the copyright material they are referring to is the song? Not sure why they would have a problem with it considering all the other videos on youtube that have songs put into them.

[Mechman]

Yeah it was the song.  I find it very interesting that they can actually pick that up!

[ChrisDom]

If your making changes still; add Kevin (the guy on the bike), he didn't geocache but he did help clean up.

[hunter-killer]

In the Credits Q & but no A, and Chris DO  me thinks he would like an m added. Good Job Mech. Youtube is purging alot of videos and songs we use to like. Any old Rock videos that we always liked and were there recently are disappearing fast.

[Mechman]

I know of those 2 cut-offs, but not sure why they happen....will update with all new names this weekend.

[ChrisDom]

I sent a email to all our sponors to let them know how successful we were with the clean-up. 

I also ask Ecosuperior to help us get No Littering signs posted at the Bluffs (with littering fines and Crimestoppers phone#).  They have passed the request onto the City Parks Department.  So, we will see what happens next....maybe next year we can clean up a different greenspace.

[ChrisDom]

I received this thank card, and thought I should share it with everyone that participated in this event. 

I would also like you to think about next spring.  Should we return to the Bluffs (and maybe expand to other parts of Boulevard Lake area) or are there other greenspaces that could use a CITO?
