*** This series of cleanups are being made possible by a Watershed Stewardship and Education Grant awarded by the Sacramento County Stormwater Quality Program. We would like to sincerely thank the County for funds needed to keep our volunteers properly equipped ***Please join Ali and team as we continue to partner with Arcade Creek - Adopt A Creek Project to focus on another infamously trashed stretch of this 18 mile creek. We will meet at Herzog's Surgical and will work upstream towards Hidden Oaks Apartments where we we previously performed 17 cleanups during 2024.
We will park in the back near the gate and walk to Arcade Creek. Please arrive on time as the complex is somewhat expansive and the route to our meeting spot could be confusing.
Please bring LOTS of water or other hydration and only do what you are comfortable doing. As always, you can leave whenever you want or need.
This cleanup will have some challenging access spots into the creek and may require a rope to get into the channel, however, there are some flat spots as well for easy pickin’. There will be water in the channel, deep in many parts, so waders are preferred. As always, we welcome anyone who would like to clean along the top banks and/or help schlep the trash on land.
AGE LIMIT: This event is not suitable for minors under 14 years old. Minors 14 and older are invited, but must be supervised by a responsible adult during the entire event.
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 is 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! 💚
