Our creeks and arroyos are the lifeline to our rivers; they flow through our city and into the Santa Cruz River. Many of these waterways are filled with trash, which is carried into our rivers downstream through large rain and flood events. Through this event, we want to encourage you all to sift through a local waterway (Arroyo Chico) in search of trash. As you pick up the
trash in your local area, you not only help you and your neighbors, but the whole of Tucson to be a cleaner place!
This event is organized through WMG’s River Run Network (RRN). Members work together to learn about and steward our creeks and rivers through creek walks, restoration activities, river clean-ups, and educational workshops. If you are not yet a member, we will add you to the RRN when you register for this event. Membership is free and includes a regular e-newsletter with upcoming events.
