River Cleanups

Cleanups are now being planned!  There may be more that pop 

up in April and May... It's likely we'll host our own at some point

as well.

Visit the cleanup page to view the dates. It's located on our link list to the right.

Of course all RK families and friends are invited to attend any or all of
these cleanups.  We're planning on providing some RK adult supervision for
each of these events.  If there won't be a RK coordinator on site, I'll let
you all know.

Remember:
   - Long sleeves and pants - unless it's just too darn hot
   - hats are good for a couple reasons
   - sunblock
   - Boots or sturdy old tennis shoes that can get wet
   - work gloves (these are provided sometimes, but they are never high
quality)
   - RK t-shirt - that's how we get the battle scars
   - water bottle or can of super caffeinated energy drink, your choice

Also, bring a camera if you'd like and a change of clothes (or at least a
towel to cover your car seat).  You never really know what you may find or
what crazy moments might arise worthy of a pic or eight, but you're certain
to walk away messier than when you arrived.

No need to let me know that you are attending - you can show up that day on
a whim.  However, if you let me know ahead of time that you'll be showing
up, I will keep an eye out for you.

One more thing...I know there are some River Kid superheroes out there that
can clean and clean for hours at a time, but an hour or two is usually
physically sufficient to wear a person out...very few people hang in there
for longer, so feel free to come for as little or as much of the cleanup
times as you'd like.  (EXCEPTION - The Trailnet cleanup is a little more
demanding since we will be shuttled out to cleanup locations...we have to be
on time and stay for that one.)

Looking forward to finally getting my hands on some river trash in '08!
