RiverLink to host ‘All Roads Lead to the RAD’ cleanup

Press Release

From RiverLink:

Join RiverLink and Recover Brands for the second annual All Roads Lead to the RAD cleanup, focusing on streams, creeks, and roads in Asheville’s River Arts District.

The cleanup will be Friday, February 28, starting at 2:00 p.m.

Due to the cold weather, teams will be working in the flood plain of the French Broad but will not be getting in the water. Groups will work in various locations in the River Arts District and will eventually converge at the RiverLink offices.

RiverLink will provide safety vests, gloves, litter pickup sticks, and orange trash bags for all volunteers. Please plan to meet at the RiverLink offices around 2:00. We will divide into groups from there. After the cleanup join RiverLink and Recover Brands for light snacks, libations, and t-shirts.

For more information or to signup as a volunteer, email RiverLink’s Assistant Volunteer Coordinator, Jess Peete, at jess@riverlink.org.
