What to expect: 

This is a paddling cleanup in canoes.

 

The Little Cahaba River winds its way from Moody through Leeds, eventually joining the Cahaba River just north of Highway 280. Along its journey, it flows through forests, beneath urban landscapes, and into a reservoir. It serves as a habitat for threatened and endangered species, yet it also faces the challenges of both intentional and unintentional pollution.

 

We will be meeting on Cahaba Beach Rd where we’ll pass out gear and choose our paddling partners for the day. We will set the shuttle before the trip so that your car is at the Siccard Hollow side when we get off the water. This process will take from 20-30 minutes. More details of the shuttle process will be shared at the event. For more information on the stretches of the Cahaba check out the Cahaba Blueway. River segment is dependent on weather and water level.

 

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 (required)

You are welcome to bring a cooler for your water and lunch, but alcohol is prohibited.
