SUMMARY:Live Staking Workday
DESCRIPTION:Live staking is a riverbank stabilization technique that uses dormant tree and shrub cuttings to help reduce sediment load in streams and rivers. This year\, RCA needs your help to plant 1\,200 of these shrubs along the Rivanna River! \nWe will access the riverbank locations by canoe and wade along slick\, muddy banks. Volunteers should be comfortable navigating the river by boat\, as well as entering and exiting the canoe in shallow water. Higher water levels and lower water temperatures are likely during this event. \n– This event is only for experienced paddlers and those who are comfortable navigating the riverbanks by boat and on foot. \n– Please bring your own chest waders if you have them! RCA has a limited supply. \n– It is recommended that you layer up\, especially the lower extremities. If possible\, avoid wearing cotton. \n– RCA will provide canoes\, PFDs\, gloves (not insulated)\, waders (limited supply) and staking equipment. \nWe plan to paddle from Key West Swim and Tennis Club to Darden Towe Park (~2 miles). Participants should plan to shuttle in their own cars or can coordinate with the group leader\, Devon (info@rivannariver.org) on a first come\, first served basis. \nSign up here: https://htru.io/SARv

SUMMARY:Rivanna River Round-Up
DESCRIPTION:The Rivanna River Round-Up is an annual watershed-wide cleanup event hosted by the Rivanna Conservation Alliance. Join us in taking a stand for clean water by volunteering on September 24th. \nOur goal is to combat the ever-growing plastic pollution problem we see in our local waterways and around the world. From single-use items like plastic bags and straws to less obvious culprits like tires\, plastics can harm wildlife\, release harmful chemicals into the water\, damage habitat\, and make waterways less safe. \nWhether you are interested in cleaning up along a trail\, collecting trash while wading through a stream\, or paddling the Rivanna to pull out tires\, we will have many options available. You can even register your own cleanup as part of the event and we’ll provide supplies and guidance. \nSign up for a paddling cleanup! \nSign up for a stream or trail cleanup!
