Work, Enjoy, Restore!
Sunday, October 16, 2011

 

It’s that time of the year again, time to grab those gloves,

shovels and boots and bring the family and friends out to help restore our Truckee River. The

16th annual Truckee River Day is scheduled for Sunday, October 16th.

Volunteers will have their choice of half or full day restoration projects with different levels of

difficulty. There will be 13 projects including re-vegetation to further restoration at Perazzo

Meadows, plantings to restore the former Town Corporation Yard, and surveying for fish habitat

in the Little Truckee River.

 

A celebration at the River Fair will follow the projects.

The River Fair will be from 1:00-4:00pm at Granite Flat Campground and will include food, live

entertainment, fun environmental activities for kids and adults and the annual fish release at

3:00pm. Everyone is invited to the fair even if you’re not participating in restoration projects.

To participate in this year’s festivities please visit TruckeeRiverWC.org or call (530) 550-8760.

The deadline for registration is Friday, October 7th.
