[RdPWC] Stream Clean-Up November 8th!

Hello All,

I'm forwarding some info (see below) on a big River des Peres Watershed Coalition event November 8.  There's a flyer attached as well if you have a place to hang one.

However, there are some things going on this weekend as well...if you're able and willing.  There is a prairie grass planting along the Riverfront Trail being operated by the Grace Hill Americorps Rangers.  The details are on the events page at Confluence Greenway's site: http://www.confluencegreenway.org/m-events.php   This site has TONS of good events in and around the Confluence of the MO and MISS Rivers.

There's even information on that haunted maze I mentioned before...it's in Godfrey, IL...it's $6 for adults and $4 for kids.  This is the LAST weekend it will be open for the season.

Ben
