DeJA's 3rd C&D canal clean-up will be on Sunday, October 17th. All details are not complete at this time, but generally we will meet at a location and move everyone to the access roads for the area we are to clean up. This was mentioned at the Sept. meeting.
Those of you who have done these in the past are familiar with the routine, so please add anything you can think of that I've forgotten.
We are probably doing a new area this time, on the North side of the canal, in the areas immediately east and west of the Summit Bridge (on 896). We will need people to bring trailers and/or pick ups if you have them. Volunteers are responsible for their own beverages, and the club will provide a pizza lunch. We will meet at 9am at a locationt to be posted later, get everyone to the area, and break up into 2 groups who will move to the end of our clean up area, and work back towards the bridge. The C&D Canal Project Office will either provide a roll-back dumpster, or give us a specific area to pile up the trash that they will pick up later.
Recommended attire:
-long pants and boots
-long sleeve shirt (or jacket as weather requires)
-hat
-work gloves
(If anyone here works for a company that could possibly donate trash bags, or gloves, or any equipment useful for this event, please send me a PM)
There are sticker bushes and overgrown areas that we'll be dealing with, so use common sense to reduce the risk of injury.
More information will be coming, please sign up on the calendar for this event.
