Cottonwood Creek Clean Up
Details
Cottonwood Creek is rarely paddled and often trashed. Come join us on the water as we paddle this creek and help the environment.
This event is jointly sponsored by North Texas River Runners, Trinity Coalition and Grand Prairie Adopt-A-Stream.
This clean up is all water based. If you love to paddle it is a great chance to improve your skills. If you have a boat, bring it. If you need a boat, let us know as their are free rental boats available.
