September | September | 1 - River City Waterway Alliance – HUGE 7-Day Inter Agency Clean-up at Steelhead Creek (Day 5)
09:00 -12:00 10/01/2024  ALL HANDS ON DECK, SEVEN-DAY CLEANUP (Sept 27-Oct 2)! We are excited to again join in this HUGE cleanup of this trashed section of Steelhead Creek. This should be the BIGGEST cleanup of the year and will remove trash from the floodplain ahead of the rising waters! This cleanup series is organized by RCWA, Dr. Roland Brady and Crystal Tobias (Friends of Steelhead Creek), Sacramento Area Creek Council, the Central Valley Water Quality Control Board, Reclamation District 1000, American River Flood Control District and the City of Sacramento. The work site will be on the EAST bank of Steelhead Creek. We will meet at the levee gate on the EAST side of Steelhead Creek. PLEASE be on time (early ok) since we have to lock the gate behind us. At 9:00 am SHARP, we will caravan to the cleanup site. Late comers will not be accommodated. Folks that might need to leave early are welcome. The event will range in difficulty from easy to advanced and is not be suitable for children under the age of 16. There will be plenty of hard-core badgering (digging out the big stuff), but also lots of easy detail work along the flat floodplain above the creek. We will provide bags, but please bring along your sturdy footwear, grabbers, buckets, and gloves – a limited number of loaner buckets and grabbers may be available. As there is water in the creek, participants will be required to wear rain boots or waders if they intend to get into the water. Entry into any waters is always optional. As with all events shared on our Page, participation is performed solely at your own risk. Please place safety FIRST and do only what you feel comfortable doing. Moreover, participants will be required to sign a Release and Waiver form if they have not done so previously. Overall, be safe, have fun and get some “Exercise with a Purpose”!, as Bill Templin says. Thank you!
