Rush Creek Cleanup
Annual Rush Creek Cleanup
The Twelfth annual Rush Creek clean-up will take place on Saturday June 16 2018 and will focus efforts on an eight mile stretch of Rush Creek from the Southern California Edison power plant upstream of Silver Lake down the canyon to US 395.
Volunteers should meet at the Silver lake boat ramp at 8:00am and bring gloves, a hat, sunscreen, repellent, boots and waders if you have them. Trash bags will be provided by Silver Lake resort.
This section of Rush Creek is especially popular with anglers and each year up to 50 bags of material are collected. Of particular importance is collecting stray fishing line caught in the bushes and trees as this is a huge threat to birds and other wildlife. After the clean-up, Silver lake Resort will treat the volunteers to a free barbeque lunch.
If you are interested in keeping this pristine stretch of water clean come up and meet members of the Streamborn Fly Fishing Club who are the primary organizers of the event. Any questions on the clean-up you can contact Joe Lemire to confirm your attendance (jflx8@dslextreme.com) at (909)609-1101
