** We really need your help - TS Chantal had devastating damage to the water and shoreline upstream of Wilderness Island **
PLEASE HELP!

For many years, CKC has dedicated 1 Sat every 6 months to clean our Jordan Lake.  Please join our club event again this October to 'Make a Difference'.
               

Trash threatens Jordan Lake's natural beauty, wildlife  and clean, safe drinking water.   YOU can make a difference and Keep Your Lake Beautiful!!

Semi-Annual club clean up event, Jordan Lake, sponsored by Carolina Kayak Club in junction with Clean Jordan Lake, who will provide gloves as well as bags and trash grabbers.

 No trash is carried back on boats.

PFDs are required for the paddle
Highly recommend your bring / wear boots, long pants, and gloves for the clean-up

Wilderness Island Shoreline Clean-up

This is a working clean-up event.  To ensure your own safety and protection

• Please wear long pants and boots - expect uneven terrain and undergrowth
• Also bring your favorite work gloves and bug spray
• Clean Jordan Lake will provide gloves and trash bags

We will launch from Roberson Boat Ramp (not the canoe ramp) and paddle approx. 1.5 miles to the pick-up location. (clean-up location is only accessible by boat)

We will pick up as much trash as we can, bag it, and stack the bags on the shore.  Trash will be picked up by the US Army Corps of Engineers.   (bags will be provided)

Event will run from 9:30 AM to approx. 12:00 PM. 



The cleanup is to support the efforts of Clean Jordan Lake.  In 14 years of volunteerism, more than 10,000 volunteers have removed over 23,000 bags of trash and over 5000 tires from 20 miles of shoreline.
