Tenth-annual Truckee River Clean-up Day Sept. 29
Join volunteers in kayaks and on land to pick up trash and give back to river
The long hours of summer soon will begin to fade; sadly the days of fun and friends on the river are becoming few and far between. Although the Truckee River community has seen better seasons for kayaking, the paddlers in Reno have reached an all-time high.
While the water-flows in the Truckee were not quite ideal for kayaking this year, the low water does provide a great opportunity to give back to the river. At 8 a.m. Sept. 29, Nevada EcoNet, along with other organizers,will be hosting the annual Truckee River Clean-Up Day.This presents the perfect opportunity for one last hoorah on the hometown court before the season ends.
Although most of the volunteers in this event work on shore, the organizers are also looking for kayakers to man both inflatable kayaks and rafts to float the river and pick up trash. There might also be opportunity for some hard shell kayaks as well. The day will begin at 8 a.m. for on-water participants.
