Postponed: River Clean Up Canoe & Kayak
Please note: Due to high water levels and weather conditions, the Earth Day River Clean Up has been postponed. Please check back soon for a rescheduled date.
Are you an experienced paddler? Do you long to do your part to care for the planet? The Kalamazoo River is an unfortunate landing place for garbage that is not properly disposed of. Join the Kalamazoo Nature Center and Kalamazoo River Watershed Council on a paddle to clean up the Kalamazoo River. Sustaining a healthy watershed ecosystem and maintaining the beauty of our river trails requires human awareness and ongoing care. The Kalamazoo River is part of what makes our community vibrant, and it needs our attention. Garbage and debris are two of the many threats impacting stable habitats and crucial water resources. Be part of a community stewarding a thriving waterway.
All clean up gear and supplies will be provided. You must bring your own kayak or canoe.
