Southern Utah
Adopt a Waterway
The City of Saint George has created and requested assistance in a program called, “Southern Utah Adopt a Waterway.” The program is targeting our local waterways with combined efforts including citizens, volunteer groups and municipalities. The goal is to enhance our local river system by smaller organized/sponsored clean-up efforts. It is similar to the State’s, “Adopt a Highway” Program.
Santa Clara has joined this program to enhance and beautify the Santa Clara River/Tuacahn Wash areas within our city limits. Santa Clara has been divided into several sections for clean-up. There are 7 sections within the Santa Clara River, 9 sections within the Tuacahn Wash, and 3 sections within the Lava Ridge Wash. We are looking for volunteer groups to adopt these sections of river within our city.
Groups will meet a minimum of two times a year for two years once signed up. However, each waterway adoption can be tailored for each group. If groups want to adopt more than one waterway or would like a shorter or longer section, we can tailor their experience. Groups who participate can qualify for trail signs with their names/logos, as well as possible community service press release.
