Chilkat River/Road Clean-up

[Jessica Kayser]

Chilkat River Love Update:

Activity: Bike Fun

Level:  No Experience Required

Purpose:  Chilkat River Love

Gather your bike bags, trailers, pack-backs, strollers... whatever it be and meet at the Takshanuk Watershed Council this Saturday May 7th at 9am. The TWC office is across from the bank on Main Street. 

TWC will be supplying us with the bags and instructions on how to fill out the garbage inventory card. 

It would be great if somebody wanted to volunteer to help me in the morning to tell bikers which part of the highway they should clean up and get people bags I sure would appreciate it!!  Let me know. I will be meeting Julia from TWC there at 8:30 so she can hand off the stuff for the Haines Bikes volunteers.

Oh, and anybody who knows somebody associated with the Haines Well and Fit crew if you could let me know their donation process and/or phone number and/or person who I should tell I am buying a keg in their name (just kidding, just seeing if you are still reading)... let me know!

See you ALL (hehe) on Sat.

Oh, and make your kids come or somebody else's kid its good for group morale!!

In other news, our Mayor, and now the governor has proclaimed May Bike Month! http://gov.alaska.gov/parnell/press-room/full-proclamation.html?pr=5752 Now let's hope the weather will help promote it too.  See you out there. Noble Email from Pam: Hey Noble  ~  I sent the info on a bike challenge to the radio station and newspaper.  Wondering if you could ask your group for some prizes for that week?  I think the best thing to do at this point would be a drawing for the week and one for the last day.  That way the more you rode the more times you would get entered.    Now, where could people enter???  Here, the borough, the school, the library, the bank, Howsers, Oletruds, MM, etc.  ~ How??   Just a can with paper where they write their name???  Who else is willing to help gather names etc?   FYI ~ I am out of town from the 12th to the 30th.   Just talked to Leslie at the newspaper ~ whe will put it in save the date this week and then do an ad for next week.   Please give me some ideas.  Thanks, Pam     -- Pam Sloper, RN        Ph: 907-766-6367     WISEWOMAN Women's Health Program  Southeast Alaska Regional Health Consortium (SEARHC) Haines Health Center, Haines, AK  99827
