Don’t let these low water levels discourage you, especially on the upper river. It’s a perfect time for collecting trash that is normally inaccessible. You can work on foot relatively close to your put-in and take-out points if it’s too low for paddling. You’ll still get a lot and it’s worthwhile doing.
We don’t want to pass up this opportunity. Deb Meeks and Wayne Kinard took a crew up to the Jasper Bridge the other day and got a bunch of tires. Altogether, they got more than 600 pounds of trash working out on that almost dry riverbed.
So, get those registrations in for the Current Problems Great Suwannee River Cleanup. Send them to P.O. Box 357098, Gainesville, FL, 32635, call 352-264-6827 or visit www.currentproblems.org.
Whether you end up wading or paddling, it’ll be a good cleanup, and your efforts will be much appreciated.
