    Default Credit Island XStream Cleanup August 8

    Thanks to everyone supporting FORCs river mile adoption along Credit Island, and fatbiking + Fondo Festing. FORC is piggy-backing on a planned cleanup.
    Chad Pregracke's Living Land's & Waters XStream cleanup is Sat Aug 8. I've been in touch w/Friends of Credit Island & Boy Scouts that coordinate cleanup events along Credit. There are no more online registration slots for XStream cleanup, but plenty of work to be had.
    Same-day registration (lawyer stuff) is 8AM on Credit Island; cleanup is 830AM to 1130AM.
    No cost; water, gloves, trashbags provided. Wear old clothes & git durty.
    Volunteer chow provided afterward.
    Unfortunately I will be out of town that weekend. Juicy Joe is going to coordinate the FORC group at the XStream cleanup. Stay tuned for more details from Juicy.
    Its a Great opportunity to get out & recon for the upcoming FAT season!

    Join FORC and help clean up the Mississippi shoreline along Credit Island. We will be getting involved to help The Friends of Credit Island and Living Lands and Waters pick up trash and debris that has washed up from the previous year. We will need 15-20 volunteers on August 8th for the clean up. The event starts at 0830, but please show up at 0800 to register. A good idea to wear old clothes and also long sleeves to the over growth. More to come on a FORC meeting spot on the island

    More info: Our group is already registered for the event. Please be there at 0800 as there will be a brief overall of safety instructions, instruction on the cleaning plan, supply distribution , and for individuals to sign waivers. This will happen next to the new lodge. There will be a lot of people there, so i thought we would meet as a group near the tank which is to the right once you hit the island. If this doesn't work I will have the large black Tundra (hard to miss) and we'll adjust as necessary. Please don't wear any open toed shoes and old clothes as they will get dirty. Thanks for coming out!!!http://www.oocities.org/qcsms/m103/index.html
