Save Our Shores will be hosting a creek cleanup along Branciforte Creek on February 13th from 9am to noon. We will have a check-in table at the intersection of Market Street and Avalon Street. SOS will have heavy duty gloves, rubber boots, buckets and bags but feel free to bring your own garden gloves or tools. We will be cleaning along Branciforte Creek down to where it meets San Lorenzo River.

Families are welcome and will be able to clean stretches along the bike path which are safe for smaller children. All children must be accompanied by an adult. All participants must sign a waiver form at the check-in table prior to participating or you can download the waiver below and bring it with you to speed up your check-in process.

This location is notorious for the amount of trash we collect so we need all the help we can get! Volunteers collected over 1,000 pounds of trash and recycle at the last cleanup we ran at this site. It is a high priority site for this reason and is in real need of attention. During the winter months especially, our creeks and rivers can become clogged with debris, both natural and man-made, disrupting the ecosystem and even causing premature flooding.

This cleanup effort is funded by the City of Santa Cruz' Clean River, Ocean and Beaches Fund (Measure E).
