Earth Day River Cleanup
Saturday, April 21, 2012
9AM-11AM
Come celebrate Earth Day with the Napa RCD and Napa Spring Clean by beautifying downtown Napa! We need dedicated volunteers to help clean up 5 sites along our creeks and the Napa River.
Come have a great time doing something good for the Earth!
Sites:
Important!!! Due to construction, there will be no Napa Creek cleanup! There will be a downtown street cleanup, and supplies for that can be picked up at the south end of the parking lot of the Cinedome movie theater at the end of West Street (behind Cole's Chop House).
- Kennedy Park, boat ramp
- South Wetlands, end of Jefferson St.
- Riverside Drive, at Elm St.
- Mt. Veeder, Dry Creek-Lokoya Fire Station at 5900 Dry Creek road
More Information:
Gear:
Garbage bags, latex gloves, and light refreshments will be provided at each site.

Water:
Though we will provide water,
in the interest of conserving resources and stopping the cycle of plastic waste
in our waterways, we encourage you to bring your own water in re-usable containers.
