HCO Paddle-n-Plant Workday
The Valle Crucis Community Park 2892 Broadstone Road, Valle Crucis, NC, United StatesThe Watauga Riverkeeper and MountainTrue are combating sediment erosion in our local waterways. Sediment is a major polluter in our river basin, clogging fish and aquatic habitats, increasing water temperatures, and transporting toxic substances. We are helping to reduce the amount of sediment that flows into our rivers by planting live-stakes along eroding riverbanks. As these stakes grow into trees, they stabilize the sides of the rivers and creeks where we plant them and reduce the overall amount of sediment getting into the river. So, come hop in a boat and help us reduce erosion along our local rivers!

Fall Foliage Paddle on the Broad
Broad River Greenway Canoe Access 126 Broad River Drive, Shelby, NC, United StatesSince fall has finally arrived, we're grabbing our boats and headed out onto the Broad River to enjoy the fall colors. We will paddle a beautiful and remote stretch of the Broad from Shelby, NC to Gafney, SC that few people get to enjoy! Because the fall foliage is hard to predict, we're reserving several dates as options for the paddle. We will set a firm date on Nov. 6th based on the weather forecast and river conditions and will email folks who've signed up with the final date.
