Opportunity Details | Catawba Riverkeeper Land/Water Cleanup 6/8
Opportunity Name:
Catawba Riverkeeper Land/Water Cleanup 6/8 |
|
Description:
Join Catawba Riverkeeper to remove trash from the land around Mountain Island Lake and from on the water via motorboats in Mt Holly, NC. Mountain Island Lake is an important lake in the Catawba River Basin as it provides essential urban natural habitat, recreation through trails and parks, and supplies the drinking water source for our neighbors to the south. The Catawba River's main channel spans 225 miles in length and the Catawba-Wateree Basin encompasses 8,900 miles of smaller waterways throughout 26 counties in two states (NC/SC). We are truly thankful you are donating your time and service to enhance the health of our shared water network! Weather Policy: Volunteer programs operate rain or shine. We will cancel events due to inclement weather including but not limited to, thunder/lightning storms, extreme winds, and flood waters. Due to the nature of weather events, we make this call by 2:00pm the day before the event.

Check In:
*We are working with local residents to try to get a few motorboats to take people to Mountain Island, just south of the Riverbend Boat Access. Because we are relying on volunteers for boats, signing up for a motorboat shift does not guarantee that spot. It will depend on how many boats we are able to get and their capacities. Thank you for your understanding.
