Update 2024-11-15: Changed to November 16, 2024, due to schedule conflicts.
Join us, walking between the Little River Confluence and GA 133 on the Withlacoochee River seeking deadfalls to chainsaw and trash to collect.
Hurricane Helene blew down many trees, so we should find plenty of deadfalls.
Nobody has to use a saw of any kind. You can help by photographing, pulling limbs out of the way, or just being there.
When: Gather 9 AM, launch 9:30 AM, end 2 PM, Saturday, November 2, 2024
Put In:
Troupville Boat Ramp,
19664 Valdosta Hwy, Valdosta, GA 31602. I-75 exit 18, west on GA 133 (St. Augustine Road) away from the Valdosta Mall, at the traffic light for Val Tech Road, turn left down to the boat ramp, in Lowndes County.
The water level is well below our recommended low level for paddling,
but if you do want to put in a kayak or canoe,
you might try sliding it down the sand slope under the GA 133 bridge.
