Help out at last Minute–River Clean UP

Posted by on November 13, 2012

I had a request to solicit helpers for a River Clean Up. The folks at Groundwork Dallas need a hand.

Good afternoon all,

As many of you know, we here at GWD have been working on an area that we refer to as the Williams school project area; The Elm fork of the Trinity River.

The city of Dallas has done an amazing job over the past 10 days removing a log jam that has been collecting trash and debris behind it.

One lucky point in the drought we are in has the water levels very low in the area and with the logs gone we can get to the trash in the water.

The trick here is that we have ONE shot at this!!

The Trinity River Audubon has agreed to loan us their boats so we can get after this trash.

So we are calling on all of our friends to help us.  

THIS SATURDAY!! from 9-12

We need as many folks as we can get we will have a trailer full of canoes and we need people to fill them !

Please pass this on to your friends and come help us get this trash out of the water before we have another big rain and the trash is all washed down river into the Great Trinity Forest.

We will meet at the work site at 9 am sharp!

Call my cell ASAP for directions to the site ! I need a head count by the Close of business Thursday to let the City offices know what to expect~ 214-531-1406

PLEASE HELP !!!!
