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.
