River Medway Clean Up Sunday April 14th
Posted: Sun Mar 03, 2019 10:15 am
The 2019 River Medway Clean Up will be on Sunday 14th April. It would be nice to see a good number of Meridian paddlers helping the effort and "mucking in" . There should be lots of lifts available from the boathouse for paddlers and boats on the day.
British Canoeing are keen to use this as part of their Clear Access: Clean waters campaign, and want to get local MPs to come and witness our efforts.
I am working with other clubs from the area who use the Medway. We already have a promise of open boats from Kent Canoes.
We will be concentrating on those parts of the river that we did not reach last time , Teston , East Farleigh down to Maidstone.
Please post here if you can make it and whether you can offer a lift.
Youth paddlers welcome , as are non-paddlers as we always need bank walkers to collect the rubbish paddlers cannot reach.
