Help us pick-up trash and keep our local river clean!
Meet the O'Neal Librarians and Cahaba River Society staff on June 23 at 9AM-12PM at 4005 Cahaba Beach Road 35242 to keep our local river clean! This is a residential address, so DO NOT turn into this driveway. Once you make it on to Cahaba Beach Road you will continue straight until the road ends. We will be waiting by the old iron bridge
We will learn about Alabama's largest river, its unique biodiversity, and help with river cleaning efforts. Most supplies and equipment provided.
Volunteers MUST wear comfortable clothing you do not mind getting wet along with closed-toed shoes. Bring your own lunch and water to enjoy at the river. OPTIONAL materials to bring: sun protection (sunscreen, sunglasses, hat). IMPORTANT: All teen volunteers MUST sign the Cahaba Riverkeeper Waiver & Release of Liability forms before or at the event to participate. Anyone under the age of 18 will require parent/adult guardian permission to participate.
This service program is for students rising to grades 7-12, and be at least 12 years-old. Registration is REQUIRED. Got questions? Email young adult librarians Michelle Cheng and Gracie Roth at teens@oneallibrary.org. If there is severe weather expected to occur during the service program, the event will be CANCELED. Log your attendance in our 2025 Challenge Yourself Challenge for a chance to win a prize at the end of the summer!
