SUMMARY:2021 Spring Ochoco Creek Instream Cleanup
DESCRIPTION:The Rotary Club of Crook County is once again teaming up with Crook County Parks and Recreation\, Deschutes Land Trust\, SOLVE\, Crook County\, Republic Services and Crooked River Brewing to do an in stream cleanup of Ochoco Creek before high water hits. CCPRD will help with logistics and collect the trash bags during the cleanup. Republic Services is donating a 10 yard dumpster and Crook County is paying for the dumping fees at the landfill. \nVolunteers are needed to do a thorough instream and bankside cleanup on March 27th. The reach of Ochoco Creek to cleanup is from Combs Flatt Rd to Gardner Street\, within the City of Prineville. If enough volunteers are recruited cleanup will be expanded to outside of the City to the Ochoco Lumber Company property and also to the north east – hopefully to the confluence with the Crooked River. \nDue to the complexities of working in the creek\, no one under 12 will be allowed to be in the Creek itself and youths between 12-18 must be accompanied by a responsible adult. Any age can help cleanup the banks and along Ochoco Creek pathway\, but children under 12 should have a parent or designated guardian with them.
