Special Thanks
The litter barrels are emptied weekly all year long by Santa Fe Canoe Outpost & Adventure Outpost.  Their contribution is invaluable to keeping the river clean.

Current Problems is very grateful to the volunteers who participated and the groups that conducted the cleanups for Current Problems.  Working with civic groups gives us the opportunity to accomplish much more than we would otherwise.  Please call or e-mail the office if you would like to arrange a cleanup for your group.  Email the office to request to be placed on our volunteer list so that you will be notified of events as they are scheduled.
