Creek Clean Up

Wildlife Heritage Foundation Preps for Creek Clean Up

(Lincoln, CA) Wildlife Heritage Foundation (WHF) is prepping for their annual Creek Cleanup on September 15, from 9 am- 12 pm at McBean Park in Lincoln.

The public is invited to take part in the clean up, which is expected to attract more than 200 volunteers who rid nearly 1,000 pounds of debris from the Auburn Ravine. This year, volunteers expect to surpass their counts of previous years.

Over the years, WHF partnered with the Sierra Nevada Alliance’s Great Sierra River Cleanup (GSRC), which is a statewide effort held the same weekend every year, to clear creeks and waterways from trash, bottles and overgrown vegetation.

“Last year, our volunteers made enormous improvements to Auburn Ravine, and without that support, our local waterway becomes unsafe for residents, the environment and our wildlife,” said WHF Associate Director Kelly Velasco.

Trivia Night at The Blue Goose

In addition to the Creek Cleanup, WHF is prepping for the inaugural Trivia Night on October 5, 2018 from 6-10 pm at The Blue Goose in Loomis. The event will offer local craft beer, wine and cuisine while pitting teams against each other in several rounds of fun, entertaining trivia.

“We realize we need to get the community, and especially younger adults, involved in caring for our local waterways and to do that, we need to increase awareness of WHF and what we do,” says Velasco. “So, we are eager to host Trivia Night to meet new friends and increase their interest in getting involved.”
