What to expect:
This is a paddling cleanup in canoes.
We’ll be paddling one of the last stretches of the Upper Cahaba in Hoover. Hoover sees the brunt of the downstream effects of development of all of the watershed upstream. It also gets a lot of the trash that flows down from those areas as well. For more information on the stretches of the Cahaba check out the Cahaba Blueway. River segment is dependent on weather and water level.
We will be meeting at the Bains Bridge canoe access where we will pass out gear and select paddling partners. We will set the shuttle before the trip so that your car is at the Flemming Park access when we get off the water. This process will take from 30-40 minutes. More details of this process will be shared at the meeting location.
CRS will provide canoes, paddles, life jackets, grabbers, bags, and gloves. There is no charge for this trip. Folks are absolutely welcome and encouraged to head to the CRS website for donations to offset program costs to CRS.
After every Mom’s Basement Cleanup there will be an afterparty at Mom’s Basement with drink specials and prize giveaways for each participant! Details will be given at the cleanup.
What to bring:
- Water (at least 1 liter)
- Lunch
- Sunscreen
- Sun hat
- Close-toed shoes
You are welcome to bring a cooler for your water and lunch, but alcohol is prohibited.
