Itinerary:

Come out and join me for Rivers Alive!

The Annual River's Alive event in Woodstock will be held at Olde Rope Mill Park.  We'll meet @ the pavilion on the right as you drive in.  There is plenty of parking.

The Rivers Alive clean-up starts at 9am and goes till 12 noon, but I would like our group to meet at 8:45 am.

FREE Rivers Allive T-shirts will be giving to us for our volunteer efforts, but are first come first serve basis.

Bring your own gloves, but trash bags will be provided.

Kayaks/canoes are welcome, but the water levels may be too low to launch them. I'll keep ya posted!

This is a volunteer event sponsored by the following organizations:
Rivers Alive
Upper Etowah River Alliance
City of Woodstock
City of Holly Springs
Cherokee County Water & Sewer Authority

The sponsors will provide a few breakfast items, snacks and water in the morning prior to the cleanup.
