This year’s event will take place at the City of Springdale’s Chamberlain Park, the site of a two phase restoration project that was completed in 2012. The project featured streambank stabilization with the use of terraced walls, stone lined channels, native plants, and plunge pool construction. Over the past 20 years, the site has held up well but needs some invasive species removed, and like all urban streams, a bit of TLC with trash removal.
Volunteers will clean up by land and water and participate in an impactful service projects. Tools and instructions will be provided at the event. Lunch will be provided by Smithfield Foods.
Registration for Cleanup by Canoe is REQUIRED (and seats are limited). Land crews of of all sizes are welcome! If you are coming with a larger group, please call MCA so we can be sure to have appropriate tools on hand for your groups participation.
