Kayaking & Clean Up – White Rock Lake – Dallas (11/14/09)

Posted by Peter on November 10, 2009

wrlsu1Please join us at White Rock Lake as part of the Second Saturday Shoreline Spruce-up organized each month by the For the Love of the Lake organization. We will be joining the Kayak Power (KP) cleaning team.

Date: Saturday – Nov 14th, 2009

Times:
Kayak/Clean up: 9-11am

RSVP: By Friday, 11/13, so we have a rough estimate for kayaks.

Meeting Locations/Times:
Peter will not be able to lead the event this month, but it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t head out to the lake to participate; tell Mike (KP owner) that you’re with the Young Sierrans and he’ll take care of you.

Meet at KP’s adopted section of the lake, Jackson Point (West side of the lake; 4100 West Lawther Dr, 75214 – map) around 9:00am. Look for the black truck and trailer hauling 20+ kayaks. See the above KP link for more info.

Weather Policy: Kayak Power will be there rain, snow, wind or shine. Unless this site states differently, so will the Young Sierrans.

Details: Kayak Power will provide all necessary kayaking and cleaning gear. KP cleans the shoreline of WR Lake from the water. Meaning, we’ll paddle around and collect debris on the lake which isn’t reachable or is challenging to reach from the shore. After collecting trash for about an hour, KP allows participants kayak around the lake until about 11am. Plan on getting a little dirty and wet.

Cost: Free to participate!!

Consider Bringing: drinking water, sunblock, hat, towel, appropriate weather protection (maybe pants – open kayaks expose your legs to the sun), change of pants/shorts.

White Rock Local Market: Be sure to check out the White Rock Local Market which is held from 8am-1pm on the second Saturday of each month at the Green Spot.  The GS is located at 702 N. Buckner Blvd. (at Northcliff Dr.), just north of the FTLOTL office.
