[onewillpaddle]

HELLO EVERYONE,
A CLEAN-UP FOR THE ILLINOIS RIVER HAS BEEN SCHEDULED FOR 9AM-2PM, OCTOBER 17, 2015. WE WILL BE PUTTING IN AT THE CHAMBER SPRINGS ACCESS AND TAKE OUT AT THE SILOAM SPRINGS KAYAK PARK. THIS IS SOMETHING I'VE WANTED TO DO SINCE LAST YEAR AND VERY SPECIAL THANKS TO BECKY ROARK WITH THE ILLINOIS RIVER WATERSHED PARTNERSHIP FOR MAKING IT HAPPEN. THE PARK IS SUCH A VALUABLE TOOL FOR US AND ITS THE LEAST WE COULD DO. THOSE OF US THAT SPEND TIME AT THE KAYAK PARK KNOW HOW MUCH THIS CLEAN-UP IS NEEDED AND SINCE I BEGAN WHITEWATER PADDLING THERE I FEEL OBLIGATED. LETS ALL PULL TOGETHER, BRING OUR BOATS, HAVE A HUGE TURN OUT, AND MAKE A DIFFERENCE. COME AND JOIN US. FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME ABOUT ANY QUESTIONS. THANKS FOR YOUR TIME.
CHEERS,
WILL

Thanks Will and Becky for making this happen. Its long overdue. Lot's of flood trash, but way too much " careless visitor" trash. -M-

Given the fact that there are plenty of trash cans on sight, I'll never understand why someone would come to a great natural setting and throw their trash on the ground. :myday"
