slide16You can help clean up our great outdoors at two locations on Saturday, November 3. Spend a fun and productive day picking up trash along the banks of Lake Camanche Reservoir or the Mokelumne River, while enjoying the fall morning and resident wildlife. For the Camanche Reservoir clean up, meet at Camanche South Shore Marina at 8:00 am for sign-in. For the Mokelumne River clean-up, meet at the Jackson Senior Center, Jackson at 8:30 am for sign-in.

Just bring your family, work gloves, canteen, sunscreen and insect repellent. Please wear good walking shoes or boots and a hat. Long pants are recommended. Flotation devices are strongly recommended for children working close to the water and will be provided at Lake Camanche. Drinking water and trash bags will also be provided. And to continue the fun, a joint barbecue sponsored by Camanche Recreation Company will be held at Camanche South Shore following the clean-up activities. 

There will be door prizes at the barbecue and interested participants are invited to attend a ranger-led program: “The Future Starts Now”.  Registration in advance is required for both events, as space is limited. Event liability forms must be completed prior to participating and will be available at sigh-in. Participants under 18 must be accompanied by an adult and have liability releases signed by the parent or guardian. If you’re thinking of joining the Mokelumne River clean up day activity on Saturday, November 3, you can sign up on-line at the Foothill Conservancy’s website. Liability forms for both cleanup locations are available also, at www.foothillconservancy.org. For additional information about the Lake Camanche clean up, call (866) 763-5121. Contact Chris Wight about the Moke River clean up at 295 4900.
