Spring for Your River!
Corvallis (Halsey/Peoria): Snag Boat Bend (LAND-based)

WHAT: Join Willamette Riverkeeper, USFWS - Willamette Valley National Wildlife Refuge Complex, Long Tom Watershed Council, and the Friends of Willamette Valley National Wildlife Refuge Complex to Spring For Your River with a cleanup and restoration effort by land at the beautiful Snag Boat Bend / William L. Finley National Wildlife Refuge.

WHEN & WHERE: Thursday, May 5th, 9:00am - 12:00pm at Snag Boat Bend, just off Peoria Road. Our local USFWS ranger will be on site to welcome folks and usher cars to the access road from the public parking area. We strongly encourage carpooling to this site!

DETAILS: Please be on time - the gated access to the area will be guided and we will won't be able to let vehicles in after we leave the gated road entrance. Please dress for the weather and bring water, work gloves (if you have them) and sturdy closed-toe shoes. Willamette Riverkeeper will provide trash bags, gloves, liners, and trash grabbers. For planting or invasive weed removal activities, the Wildlife Refuge will provide tools. Coffee and snacks too!

QUESTIONS? Reach out to event coordinator, Michelle Emmons at michelle@willametteriverkeeper.org.

FOR FUN: Trash or Treasure? You decide! Did you find something unusual, unique, or just plain weird? Post your favorite photos from your cleanup experience to social media between April 22-May 25, 2022 with #SpringforYourRiver or feel free to submit to info@willametteriverkeeper.org for a chance to win a prize!
