SANTA FE RIVER CLEANUP
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 2007
Current Problems Inc./Adopt-A-River Invites
Divers and Snorkelers to a River Cleanup
When: November 10 ( Saturday ) 9:30 AM
(Weather and water conditions permitting.)
Where: Meet at the Gilchrist County Santa Fe River Park
boat ramp on Highway 47 (by the bridge).
Contact: Pete Butt 386-454-3556 (O) 386-454-2147 (H)

Current Problems Inc./Adopt-A-River invites divers and snorkelers (and paddlers
and anyone else interested) to a river clean-up on the Santa Fe River. The
targeted section is from the Gilchrist County Santa Fe River Park boat ramp and Highway 47 bridge upstream to the rapids (shoals). This beautiful area has been heavily impacted (lots of trash) by tubers and others over the past several years.
Karst Environmental Services, Santa Fe Canoe Outpost, Adventure Outpost, Blue Springs, Ginnie Springs, Gilchrist County and AAA Porta Service, Inc. are supporting this effort, and we will have workboats and lots of canoers and kayakers supporting us. We will have three points of access to the river, in addition to the boats. We hope to work until about 3:00 PM, and we will have hot food and beverages available. We will have free air fill chips/coupons from Ginnie Springs, Cave Excursions, Amigos Dive Center and Lloyd Baileys Scuba for those diving.
The water has been staying very clear, and shouldn't be too cold; full suits
and hoods will be best, and perhaps a pair of garden gloves. If you have them,
please bring dive flags and catch bags. (Note: all SCUBA divers must be
"certified".)
This is a chance to use you diving skills for a good cause and in service to the environment. Please contact Pete for more details and further information if you're interested. More information will be posted as we get nearer to the date. The Santa Fe River needs your help.
