Please come prepared to get a little muddy. Use the checklist below so that you come protected against the natural and man-made elements.

  Long pants and Long sleeves
  Hat and sunscreen
  Gloves (Work or gardening type)
  Shoes that can get wet and muddy
  Waterproof boots (optional)

All children must be with a responsible adult. There can be hidden hazards in the debris, plus water and slippery stream banks can be hazards.

If you bring a child or group of children, your most important job is to supervise and keep them safe. Collecting trash is secondary for adults in charge of children. Thank you for making it possible for them to have this experience!
