In the last two years the Creek has seen fires, floods, pandemics and a lot of users, lets get together and clean it up! Join PCT, fly clubs, and conservation groups to clean up the creek then hang out and fish in the afternoon!

• Social distancing (6 feet) is to be practiced, whenever practical
• Access to hand sanitizer, sanitizing wipes, and a hand washing station will be provided
