The Hydraulic Canal in Hamilton is bordered by the bike trail and a neighborhood. A bunch of trash gets dumped there, with a lot ending up in the bird sanctuary. Our goal is to remove as much trash as possible, helping to improve water quality and habitat for local wildlife.
The plan is 3 groups:
- Along bike trail
- Along Canal Rd and Campbell Dr
- A few kayaks in the water. (if you have a kayak/canoe you would like to bring, please let me know asap as we only plan to have 2-3 on the water).
We hope you can join us to improve water quality and habitat for local wildlife.
