2013 Kings River Cleanup - Saturday June 1st

 

Carroll County

 

Map to Grandview River Cleanup Location

We will meet at Kings River Rapids LLC next to the bridge on Ark. Hwy 143 Grandview at 8 am sharp.

 

Directions: from the Outpost west of Berryville take Hwy 143 north 2.3 miles, watch for the river cleanup signs on the right. If you go over the Kings River, you went too far. No problem, just go another half mile to Grandview and turn around. When you cross the river again and come up the hill you'll see a large white house on the right. Turn left across from the house and take the road down the hill to the cleanup.

 

We will provide the shuttles and trash bags. You'll need to bring your canoe and a lunch. Dress for the weather and you should expect to put in an eight hour day.

Earth Day Cleanup - Madison County

 

The A Team covered a section of river from Marshall Ford to the mid-way point

 

 

The Madison County cleanup was another successful event for the Kings Armada. This year we were able to work 17 miles of the Kings River form Marshall Ford to Rockhouse Landing recovering 54 tires, a pick-up load of trash and 200 pounds of metal.

Thank you to the 15 local paddlers who braved the chilly start and a swift river. Also thank you to the private property owner for help with access to a difficult section of the river. Thanks to Michael Fitzpatrick and Kings River Outfitters for help with the long shuttles. Again as always thanks to Madison County Recycling for the big job of taking on those 54 tires.
