River City Waterway Alliance - Arcade Creek Cleanup at Pasadena Ave (3.0)
We’ve made so much progress upstream in Ali’s adopted section that we are moving downstream to Pasadena Avenue to continue our Maintenance Mode operation! We will retreat downstream slightly and work upstream (hopefully all the way to College Oak Drive where we started our last cleanup in the area several weeks ago)!For this cleanup, we will park on a local neighbor’s property on Pasadena Avenue (with permission of course). Please note, we will park on the NORTH side of the creek – there is no vehicle bridge over the creek from Winding Way so please check your directions closely before embarking.We will start PROMPTLY at 8:30 am so please arrive a few mins early to get settled and unpacked. After our safety chat, we will continue to clean the dry creek channel and along the top of the banks, making our way upstream. Our progress in this area has been unprecedented!RCWA is so happy to continue partnering with Arcade Creek Adopt-A-Creek Project to continue cleaning Arcade Creek. We will be starting earlier due to the heat. Please bring lots of WATER and only do what you are comfortable doing. The creek is fairly dry making trash and debris easily accessible and visible. Rain boots or sturdy shoes are nice to protect from sand and fox tails and long shirt/pants are ideal to protect from the sun and any scratches & scrapes.This event will range in difficulty from easy to difficult, with some pretty easy pickins’ around the flat upper banks.RCWA 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. Recommended (but not required) boots or rain boots.As with all events shared by RCWA, participation is performed solely at your own risk.
