Delta Coastal Cleanup

This year's Coastal Cleanup was held September 20th but many cities held multiple cleanup days. Delta Kayak Adventures took part in Antioch's 1st annual cleanup via kayak on the 19th and partnered with the Delta Protection Commission to clean up an area near Rio Vista on the 20th.

The Antioch cleanup had 18 paddlers who split into two groups. One to cover the Dow Wetlands Preserve and another to clean up the Antioch waterfront. In under 2 hours we collected 126 lbs. of garbage and just under 20 lbs. of recycling!



Saturday we headed to Rio Vista's Sandy Beach and 9 paddlers crossed the Sacramento River to an area hidden behind some tule that had become inundated with trash. We ended up collecting over 800 lbs. of trash including 6 tires!

We had great groups of volunteers! Make sure and mark your calendar for September 19th, 2015 and help us keep the Delta clean!
