Upper Manistee River Clean-Up
Join us for an adventurous day on the river! We are partnering with Boardman River Clean Sweep, the Traverse Area Paddle Club, and the Upper Manistee River Association.
It’s been a while since we’ve focused on the upper part of the river so it’s time we showed it the attention it deserves!
Novice paddlers are welcome, but some paddling experience is a bonus, as this stretch of the river can be more narrow compared to its downstream stretches.
We will plan on starting at the M72 DNR boat launch/landing and taking out at Yellow Trees Landing. Those interested should bring water shoes, sun protection, lunch, and their own canoe/kayak.
We will provide some shuttling services and grabber tools for plucking things out of the water. Our office is able to loan out a canoe/kayak for the event with enough advanced notice. Those needing to borrow watercraft should notify us by September 13th. If you RSVP after this date, we cannot guarantee a boat for you to borrow.
Call the office with further questions, 231-258-3307 or email Renee, renee.penny@macd.org
