Nancy,

It's so nice to hear some GOOD news about land use policies.  Thanks for
talking to the guy.  Since my only caches are now "illegal", I'd be
interested in collaboration to place some new ones.  I am kinda short on
time, but the whole idea of tying in conservation and nature sounds so cool
to me.  That's what I had wanted to do in the St. Charles County parks
because Quail Ridge and Matson Hill have some very interesting nature stuff
to highlight.  But that was before the county got so restrictive in their
rules.

Now I'll show some ignorance and ask, Columbia Bottoms is the area with the
confluence viewing area, right?  Or am I totally confused?  I haven't had
the time to go there yet. (also waiting for cool weather)

Susan

Paperwork

Today I was finally able to speak, in person, to the manger for the Columbia
Bottoms and Bellefontaine Conservation Areas regarding geocache placement.
I went into the new Visitor and Education Center at Columbia Bottoms,
introduced myself and asked about geocaching. Tom Leifield, the manger is
very open cache placement. We chatted for a few minutes and he encouraged me
to figure out a way to tie in conservation, nature etc in the placement and
to especially discuss this in the paperwork in requesting placement. Without
a mention from me, HE volunteered that someone recently just did a good job
of placement at St. Stanislaus and did a GREAT (his emphasis) job on the
paperwork in requesting the placement. He even called Bluebeadman by his
real name  (LOL).  He went on to say that Jeff (May I call you Jeff?  lol)
talked about getting people out to the areas and onto the trails and how a
geocache might bring new people out to new areas.

The PRESSURE!

So, Jeff, I might need to "borrow" some of your ideas!  Any hints or
suggestions?

Just thought I'd pass this along as something positive in placement.

Also, if anyone would want to collaborate with us on a series of caches
(similar to St. Stanislaus -- which we haven't "officially done but hubby
has scoped out) at Columbia Bottoms, we'd be willing to "share" --  it's a
BIG, BIG place.

Nancy
