Thank you to everyone who came out to help remove trash from the Petaluma River Watershed. Together we removed 3,144 lbs. of trash from our waterways! We couldn’t have done it with all of the amazing volunteers who donated their time on Saturday to help us tackle trash at 10 different locations in the Watershed. A special shout out to the River Town Racers, Petaluma Coast Guard Training Center, Petaluma PD & Public Works for helping get teams together.
A special thanks to our funder, Sonoma Water, and sponsors Recology Sonoma-Marin and National River Cleanup.
