Waterbird Habitat Project: Low Water Gear Grab
Waterbird Habitat Project: Low Water Gear Grab
November 7, 2026 5:00 pm – 7:00 pm
American River Parkway, Sacramento, CA, USA
Join me Saturday for a low-water gear grab โ Harrington to Watt! Jump on your board or kayak and join me on the water, or pick up gear along the shore anywhere on the river. Sunโs out and the waterโs low โ letโs grab some while we can and save a life. This year salmon season reopened on the American River which meant a lot more fishing โ and a lot more abandoned gear. Weโre seeing many waterbirds and wildlife tethered to lures and line, drowning and dying from ingestion. Saturday is a rare window with low water and sun before the rain comes. The gear on the shores and in the shallows is easier to reach when the water is low. Join me from Harrington to Watt on a board or kayak, or pick up gear along the shore anywhere on the river. Please put any tackle you find in the tubes. See you on the water! #Take5ToKeepTheRiverAlive #AnglingfortheEcosystem SAFTEY FIRST: Life jackets are a must on the water and wetsuits are good if you have them! Wear gloves to protect your hands. Rocks are slippery so grippy shoes are also good!

RCWA: Ali's Arcade Creek Cleanup
November 13, 2026 5:00 pm – 8:00 pm
6520 Van Maren Ln, Citrus Heights, CA 95621, USA
Please join Ali for this cleanup of Arcade Creek as we attempt to CONNECT MORE DOTS! We will continue to partner with Arcade Creek – Adopt A Creek Project to focus on another infamously trashed stretch of this 18-plus mile creek.
We will park on the property, then walk to our cleanup spot and work upstream of the library. From there, we will follow the trash, removing litter and bulk items both in the creek and adjacent thereto. This cleanup location has some challenging access spots into the creek and may require a rope to get into the channel, however, there are some flat spots as well for easy pickinโ.
AGE LIMIT: This event is not suitable for minors under 12 years old. Minors 12 and older are invited, but must be supervised by a responsible adult during the entire event.
Please bring hydration and only do what you are comfortable doing. As always, you can leave whenever you want or need.
We will provide bags, but please bring along your sturdy waterproof footwear, waders (if you have them), grabbers, buckets, and gloves – a limited number of loaner buckets and grabbers may be available. If you have a cultivator or shovel, those could also be handy. Participants will be required to wear rain boots or waders if they intend to get into water, if any. Entry into any waters is always optional.
As with all events shared on our Page, participation is performed solely at your own risk. Please place safety FIRST and do only what you feel comfortable doing. Moreover, participants will be required to sign a Release and Waiver form if they have not done so previously.
Thank you! ๐

1900 Front St, Sacramento, CA 95811, USA
4th Annual Tower Bridge Cleanup! We will be returning to this iconic area to remove debris along the Sacramento River, cleaning by the waterline and top banks before the winter storms flush all the pollution downstream. We hope to remove trash that is not only a blight, but has the high potential for making its way into the river below. FREE PARKING will be permitted by the Department of Utilities (DOU) in their lot, just south of the Tower Bridge, next to the Pioneer Landing Park, at 1900 Front Street. AGE LIMIT: This event will be fairly easy and appropriate for all ages. Minors are invited, but must be supervised by a responsible adult during the entire event. RCWA will provide bags, but please bring along your sturdy footwear, grabbers, buckets, and gloves – a limited number of loaner buckets and grabbers may be available. As with all events shared on RCWA, participation is performed solely at your own risk. Please place safety FIRST and do only what you feel comfortable doing. Moreover, participants will be required to sign a Release and Waiver form if they have not done so previously.

RCWA: Steelhead Creek Trash/Invasive removal
RCWA: Steelhead Creek Trash/Invasive removal
November 15, 2026 5:00 pm – 8:00 pm
201 W El Camino Ave, Sacramento, CA 95833, USA
We are super excited to continue our ongoing work in Steelhead Creek within the City’s forgotten Walter S. Ueda Parkway, upstream of El Camino Bld. We will continue partnering with RCWA Restoration Director Roland Brady, PhD. Please come out and help us clear the channel for the Salmon ๐๐๐ and improve other wildlife habitat by removing trash and invasive vegetation such as Red Sesbania and Aquatic Primrose. ๐๏ธ๐ฑ The work site will be on the RIGHT/WEST bank of Steelhead Creek, near the San Juan/Silver Eagle Bridge. We will meet at the NORTHWEST levee gate near the El Camino bridge over Steelhead Creek. PLEASE be on time (early ok) since we have to lock the gate behind us. At 9:00 am SHARP, we will caravan to the cleanup site. Unfortunately, late comers and folks needing to leave early cannot be accommodated. We will continue our attack on trash and debris lining the banks and channel of Steelhead Creek, both new and old, as we work in this project area. AGE LIMIT: This event is not suitable for minors under 16 years old. Minors 16 and older are invited, but must be supervised by a responsible adult during the entire event. There will be plenty of hard-core badgering (digging out the big stuff), but also lots of easy detail work along the flat floodplain above the creek. We will provide bags, but please bring along your waders and/or sturdy, mud-resistant footwear, grabbers, buckets, and gloves – a limited number of loaner buckets and grabbers may be available. As there is water in the creek and lower floodplain, participants will be required to wear rain boots or waders if they intend to get into the water. Entry into any waters is always optional, but is definitely helpful in this area. As with all events shared on RCWA, participation is performed solely at your own risk. Please place safety FIRST and do only what you feel comfortable doing. Moreover, participants will be required to sign a Release and Waiver form if they have not done so previously.
