TeamApril Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 We only have two hides - one in Arlington, & the other in Cleburne (I used to work out there). The one in Cleburne is a nano, so not much to maintain, but the one in Arlington (where we currently live) is a cache that we actively make sure there is plenty of swag (it's in a park & I want it to be a fun cache for kids/families). If anyone would like to maintain both or one of these, please let me know, otherwise we will have to remove them. Thanks so much. Quote Link to comment
+cerberus1 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Since when is a nano not much to maintain? I'd think rather than maintain, ask with a Write Note on the cache pages, or a local geocaching forums, for someone who'd like to Adopt them. I don't believe asking others to maintain another's hides turns out well. If no takers, please remember to remove the containers before archiving them. Quote Link to comment
Keystone Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 I am moving this thread from the Geocaching Topics forum to the South and Southeast forum. Quote Link to comment
+hzoi Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 The regional forums don't get a lot of traffic these days. You may want to post notes on the geocache pages letting folks know that they are up for adoption. Also try posting in local Facebook groups, like maybe Dallas Geocachers. Quote Link to comment

Nano's really don't require much, IMO, just make sure to have a log in it & when someone says they can't find it, I make sure to check it's still there (which it is) And I'm not asking them to maintain them, so much as take them over, so maybe my choice of words didn't convey what I actually meant. But if no one wants to adopt these, I'll remove & disable/archive them. Quote Link to comment
+DaydreamBeliever4 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 I mite be interested in adopting your geocache. How does adopting a geocache work. Do I get to put my name on it and take care of it. Which geocache is it in Arlington. I live near by but, it's a little drive. I want to make sure before I agree. Quote Link to comment
