Subject: [Az-Geocaching] Adopt-A-Highway

Folks,

I was driving around last week and started to take notice of the Adopt-A-=
Highway signs, and thought it might be a great benefit to the community (=
not to mention great PR) if the AZ Geocachers were to perhaps select a hi=
ghway segment to maintain.  I e-mailed Mark Schalliol with ADOT, and inqu=
ired about the program and asked for a list of available highway segments=
 around Phoenix.  He provided me with a list of 6.

SR87
Both directions MP181-182 (between Mcdowell and Gilbert)
Both directions MP186-187 (between Gilbert and Shea)
SB MP200.8-202.8 (near Four Peaks)

SR347 (Maricopa Rd) Both directions 184.24-185.25

SR587 (south of Chandler)
Both directions MP 218.6-221 (Jct 87 to RWCD canal)
Both directions MP 223-225 (Gila River to I-10)

The jist of the thing is this:  ADOT would require 4x annually pickup of =
the area we would be assigned.  I would also consult the powers-that-be a=
nd look to get approval for each cleanup as an event cache, which could c=
onclude with a picnic/bbq at a nearby park.  Another stipulation that I f=
eel is critical is that a working group of 6-10 people would be needed fo=
r each cleanup.  I'd truly hope I would be able to get at least a half-do=
zen of you out there to help cleanup.

I have all the contact information and would be willing to assume the rol=
e of coordinator for the venture.  Let me know by either private mail or =
listserv what the interest is among the people.

BTW, we would get our own sign!  Arizona Geocachers on an Adopt-A-Highway=
 sign would be just too cool.
