To help encourage the WeGo community to get out and "explore what's great outdoors in West Chicago," the partnership of the City of West Chicago, Healthy West Chicago, the West Chicago Park District, and the West Chicago City Museum have put together the WeGo Exploring community initiative.
The WeGo Exploring community initiative aims to promote the importance of being active outdoors for physical and mental health while also highlighting the many places to go and things to do outdoors within the community.
Everywhere! West Chicago offers many great places to discover and explore. From finding the oldest tree in the DuPage County Forest Preserve in the West Chicago Prairie Forest Preserve to seeking out each of the many different parks, playgrounds, and trails the West Chicago Park District; there is no shortage of things to do and places to go in our community.
Participating in WeGo Exploring is as simple as lacing up your shoes and exploring the outdoors in West Chicago! Anyone can participate, and there are many great places to explore throughout the community.
Join other community members on wild goose chases throughout West Chicago by taking part in interactive scavenger hunts throughout the year using the GooseChase app. Win prizes and discover new places to go and things do throughout the City.
Participants can earn points for great prizes by simply answering questions, checking in at various locations, or snapping quick photos of specific things in the community. The sooner you start the hunt, the better your chances are to win some of the bigger prizes.
The goal is to help others find the best outdoor places to explore within our community, so the more photos the better! To share your photos, simply fill out the details in the accompanying form and submit your photos.
Help spread the word by sharing your adventures on social media with the hashtag, #wegoexploring. Those who help promote may also win a prize for helping building community support for this initiative.

Unified, structured vocabularies and classifications freely provided by the Gene Ontology (GO) Consortium are widely accepted in most of the large scale gene annotation projects. Consequently, many tools have been created for use with the GO ontologies. WEGO (Web Gene Ontology Annotation Plot) is a simple but useful tool for visualizing, comparing and plotting GO annotation results. Different from other commercial software for creating chart, WEGO is designed to deal with the directed acyclic graph structure of GO to facilitate histogram creation of GO annotation results. WEGO has been used widely in many important biological research projects, such as the rice genome project and the silkworm genome project. It has become one of the daily tools for downstream gene annotation analysis, especially when performing comparative genomics tasks. WEGO, along with the two other tools, namely External to GO Query and GO Archive Query, are freely available for all users at There are two available mirror sites at and Any suggestions are welcome at we...@genomics.org.cn.
I looked at the metadata and can see it's now just wego:// for everything, but that's all I can get from the metadata. From trial and error it looks like wego://route causes the app to launch as if I had passed it a route, however everything I've tried (e.g. wego://route/mylocation/37.870090,-122.268150) results in it just sitting there with my current location as the start and destination. Similar behavior for location and place.
