SUMMARY:Rivanna RiverFest
DESCRIPTION:The Rivanna RiverFest started in 2019 as a community celebration of the Rivanna River\, hosted by multiple groups. This year\, the Rivanna RiverFest will run for more than a week (May 1-9) and include a range of activities. Most require advanced registration and spots are very limited\, so sign-up soon. The Rivanna River Race registration is separate (deadline is April 30!). Some activities\, like our Pop-up Watershed Education tables\, do not require registration. Look for these in City Parks on both weekends! \nWe look forward to celebrating the Rivanna River with you in 2021! \nhttps://htru.io/RnDk

SUMMARY:Tree Planting for Stream Buffer
DESCRIPTION:Join us to help protect clean water! Riparian buffers are essential to clean\, healthy streams. Vegetated stream banks filter pollutants\, provide habitat\, and prevent erosion. \nDuring this workday\, we will work individually and distanced to plant bare root saplings along a stream corridor. All tools and instruction will be provided. Please bring water and dress for the weather. Participants should be comfortable being outside for several hours. \nVisit the event registration page

SUMMARY:Live Staking on the Rivanna
DESCRIPTION:Live staking is a riverbank stabilization technique which uses dormant tree and shrub cuttings to reduce sediment load in rivers. \nWe will access the riverbank locations via canoe and wade along unstable and muddy banks. Volunteers should be comfortable navigating the river by boat as well as entering and exiting the canoe from the water. Higher water levels and lower water temperatures are also likely during this event. \n– This event is not recommended for new paddlers.\n– Please bring your own 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 are planning to paddle from Darden Towe Park to the Rivanna River Company and participants should plan to do a walking shuttle or arrange a shuttle on their own. \n  \nContinue to sign up
