[Az-Geocaching] Important Announcement

[Gale]

I just heard about this today. I am thrilled and grateful to Mel and our state leaders who got this accomplished. I called the governors office today to thank him. Mel, Mike said he would buy you a beer if he sees you at an event cache. Thank you so much!

"Something hidden.  Go and find it. Go and look behind the Ranges --
  "Something lost behind the Ranges. Lost and waiting for you. Go!"

 We are so
 grateful for the persistence and hard work involved. 
 Caching out on state trust and blm land is our favorite
 activity.  It was a big disappointment to not have that
 option.  Can't wait to get our permit again.  
 Thank you all.

               To all Geocachers:
                 
 
                   
                 I have been working with Bucky &
                     McGee, Just Hike, RSTarT and Matt
 O'Halloran to try
                     and get geocaching back on State Trust
 Land.
                 
 
                   
                 Great news!!  With the help from
                     Senator Steve Smith the new head of the
 Land
                     Department, Lisa Atkins, the policy of
 not letting
                     us place caches on STL has been reversed
 and we are
                     allowed back on STL!!
                 
 
                   
                 A press release announcing this is
                     scheduled for tomorrow, Tues Feb 2,
 2016.
                 
 
                   
                 Please thank the new Commissioner
                     (Lisa Atkins) Senator Steve Smith and
 Governor Doug
                     Ducey with an e-mail if you could.  A
 good response
                     will show them we appreciate what they
 have done.
                 
 
                   
                 The Commissioner made the
                     announcement at the Yuma Mega Event
 yesterday IN
                     PERSON - showing her support for
 us.
                 
 
                   
                 We have discussed doing CITO Events
                     on STL to help them and they are
 extremely
                     interested so if you see an area that
 may need our
                     attention we can set something up and
 show them we
                     care also.
                 
 
                   
                 Another good thing is the STL
                     Permits will be available online at
 their website,
                     we can download the permit immediately.
  
                 
 
                   
                 I
                       know I have not renewed my permit
 since they
                       banned us and I am sure many others
 did the same
                       but now we need to again show
 our appreciation
                     by getting permits.
                 
 
                     
                 If
                       you have any questions please contact
 me.
