THIRD ANNUAL LITTLE BEAR CREEK

THIRD ANNUAL LITTLE BEAR CREEK CLEANUP
Organized by Imagine Grinnell, Poweshiek County Soil & Water
Conservation District, and Grinnell College Iowater Student Group
When: Saturday, April 11, 2015 from 9 a.m. – 11 a.m. (Rain Date April 18th)
Where: Summer Street Park, 720 Summer Street, Grinnell IA 50112
Check-in and parking: Summer Street Park at the pavilion (park along Summer
Street, not a lot of parking so carpooling is encouraged)
Dress: Be prepared to get dirty! Depending on water level in the creek, you may
want to bring waders or boots if you have them. Wear old clothes and tennis
shoes to climb in and out of the creek and/or walk in the woods. Other items you
may want are sunscreen, bug repellant, gardening gloves or rubber cleaning
gloves.
Supplies: Garbage bags, latex gloves, bottled water, and first aid will be
available. If you have refillable water bottles, feel free to bring those! A few
shovels will be available to dig out tires and other large debris, but if you have
other tools and shovels, feel free to label and bring. Also, bring along buckets if
you have them because garbage bags tend to get caught on tree branches and
tear.
