    River City Waterway Alliance - Ali's Friday Cleanup at Arcade Creek Park

    09:00 -12:00
    2025.01.24

    Please join Ali for this MAINTENANCE MODE cleanup of Arcade Creek along the Jo Smith Nature Trail – Ali’s original adopted section! We will continue to partner with Arcade Creek – Adopt A Creek Project to focus on another infamously trashed stretch of this 16.2 mile creek.
    We plan to park on Cameron Ranch Drive, then walk to the creek and work downstream of Garfield Avenue. When parking, please give plenty of clearance for driveways and trash bins.
    We will provide bags, but please bring along your sturdy WATERPROOF footwear, grabbers, buckets, and gloves – a limited number of loaner buckets and grabbers may be available. There will be water in the creek, fairly deep in a few spots. Participants will be required to wear rain boots or waders if they intend to get into the water. The water can be quite chilly this time of year. 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! 💚

    River City Waterway Alliance - American River Cleanup at The Pipe Bridge

    09:00 -12:00
    2025.01.25

    If you have ever crossed the river on the Sacramento Northern Bikeway Trail Bridge (the Pipe Bridge), you have probably seen all the trash in the river and along the trail on the south side near Blue Diamond.
    It’s been more 18 months since we held our first and only big cleanup at this location, and Mark & Deborah feel it is time to return. We will focus on the steep, rocky river banks, where no one else will go. There will also be plenty of easy trash nearby for those not able to brave the steep banks. There should be something for everyone.
    Sturdy, waterproof footwear would be helpful but sturdy shoes/boots should also work just fine. This will be a difficult level event with a moderate walk.
    AGE LIMIT: This event is not suitable for minors under 14 years old. Minors older than 14 are invited, but must be supervised by a responsible adult during the entire event.
    In an effort improve access to the cleanup site, we have permission to park on top of the levee. At 8:45 am, we will form a caravan starting at 1633 Dreher Street (located off North 16th Street just before Capitol Casino) and drive in together. The gate will be closed and locked at 9:00 am sharp, so please be early.
    We will provide bags, but please bring along your sturdy waterproof footwear, grabbers, buckets, and gloves – a limited number of loaner buckets and grabbers may be available. If you have a cultivator or shovel, those could also be handy. Participants will be required to wear rain boots or waders if they intend to enter any streams or rivers. 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.
