We’re not going to let a little rain dampen the fun at Bon Temps Paddle Battle on Lake Wylie! A few pictures from the Catawba Scavenger hunt in Morganton! Main project at our table: “Gyotaku,” the traditional Japanese method of printing fish, for kids! Swim Advisory Issued for part of Lake Wylie: A NO SWIMMING advisory was issued today for a single cove on Lake Wylie located upstream of the Hwy. 49 bridge in the Riverpointe community (see attached map). The “no swimming” advisory was issued following a report of a sewage discharge to the cove from a broken sewer force main at 15941 Riverpointe Drive. The broken force main has been repaired and the sewage discharge stopped. Charlotte-Mecklenburg Storm Water Services staff will monitor water quality in the affected area until conditions are deemed safe for human contact at which time the no swimming advisory will be lifted.
TOMORROW: Come paddle the Catawba River with us at Tailrace Marina for the LAST PADDLE of the summer series ‍♀️ ☀️ Be on the lookout for information on our fall Eco-tours! Have you seen our volunteers at participating #RiverWeek breweries this week? Big thanks to all the volunteers who are helping spread the word about the work we do at Catawba Riverkeeper. RIVERWEEK TRIVIA: Do you know where your drinking water comes from? #TriviaTuesday #RiverTrivia
What’s your Sunday looking like? ‍♀️ • Join us this Sunday, August 18 for a Lake Wylie Cleanup! We will meet at Anchored Soul in Belmont at 9:00 AM. VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT! Let’s give a virtual round of applause to Donald J Smith Jr. of the Hartford Steam Boiler Inspection & Insurance Company. Over two days, Donald volunteered 18 hours cleaning up Lake Hickory all by himself, and we are so grateful. We love our volunteers! The #DogDaysofSummer are coming to an end, which means it is time to announce the winners of our instagram contest! First place goes to @eicritch and her dog Bernie! In second place was @novastellapup! They'll both receive our sponsored prize packs. Thanks to everyone who entered; we loved seeing every #CatawbaDawg!
Calling all volunteers! We are very excited to be a part of @aroundthecrown10k with @sharecharlotte this year and NEED YOUR HELP! You can register online or through us. Have you visited one of our #Riverweek breweries yet? You have until Aug 10 to join us in our celebration of clean water, great beer, and good friends! 35 bags, 2 tires, 1 traffic cone. #Riverweek brewery cleanup was a SUCCESS!
