River Cleanup

Throughout the season, volunteers work to maintain the health of the river and maintain a clear passage.

  • Trees fall across the river creating blockages
  • Cutting away a 6 foot section of a blockage allows for free flow of the river and kayak travel
  • Trash collects in the blockages and we remove it, keeping the river clean
  • Work is completed by boat when shoreline is not easily accessed
  • Volunteers include chainsaw operators, wood haulers, and safety watchers
  • Boats need to be transported from storage to starting location on work bee days
