    Steelhead Creek Weekly Cleanup 3.0 7/12/23

    09:00 -12:00
    2023.07.12
    Camp Pollock, 1501 Northgate Blvd., Sacramento, CA
    We are continuing our cleanup of this area by hiking over to the Steelhead Creek area, by the bike trail. This is where we left off during Deborah’s Riverdale Cleanups. There are several abandoned flooded camps to clean up. This will be the start to our new Steelhead cleanup with Roland Brady, ARPF Mile Steward for Steelhead Creek. Watch for several future cleanups nearby.
    Parking is free at Camp Pollock and the cleanup sites are fairly close with level terrain. This is an easy to moderate level cleanup. We will continue to work with CoParks to remove our piles.
    Please come out and help with this project.
    As with all events shared on RCWA, 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 always says!
    Thank you!
