Save the date and join us and our partners Black Warrior Riverkeeper for our next litter pickup Saturday, September 6th, 8:30-11 a.m. at the Roebuck Golf Course!
Unique to Birmingham, the federally endangered Watercress Darter fish displays spectacular colors during mating season and lives in five local streams, including Roebuck Springs at Roebuck Golf Course. Storm runoff can be a major issue leading to litter in our waterways, so help us clean up to protect the darter before our Darter Scramble golf fundraiser 9/18!
