We rescheduled our April cleanup from Earth day weekend to this coming Saturday, April 29th. The weather forecast still isn't perfect, but fortune favors the bold and we plan on being at Rockhouse Access at 8AM. Anyone interested can meet at Rockhouse 8AM with a boat, food/drinks for themselves, and appropriate clothing/gear for the conditions. Any questions or feedback can be directed to Ray Warren (870-654-4134).

 

Pack Rat Outdoor Center has graciously allowed us to be the beneficiary of their last Pint Night event of the Spring.

Tickets are $15 for adults and $5 for children and we encourage you to pre-order your tickets because they do sell out! More information can be found at the Pack Rat website.

Carroll County Cleanup 2022

 

The 2022 Carroll County river cleanup turned out to be another great one. The weather was beautiful and the river was just right.

 

After being pushed to Osage Creek due to high water in '20 and '21 it was so nice to be back on Kings River again.

 

Thank you to the 60 paddlers and 12 camp crew who spent a long day at work. We were able to recover 94 tires, 1200 lbs. of garbage and 400 lbs. of metal from the Kings River. We covered 33 miles from Rockhouse to Stoney Point which is almost all of the Carroll County portion, the remaining portion is covered by Table Rock Lake at this time.

 

Congrats to William Moorhouse, age 10, of Huntsville, who helped with the cleanup and won the kayak.

 

Thank you to Carroll County Solid Waste, Tyson Foods Green Forest Complex and Hunnicutt Tree Service for their work with trash recovery.

 

Thank you to BSA Troop 67 of Eureka Springs.

 

Thank you to private property owners Chana Ursey, Ronnie Collins and Don Gustin who allowed access to their properties. Without their help our work would be so much harder.

 

Be sure to join us for Shoreline Pickup sponsored by H2Ozarks on Saturday October 1st. Meet us at 10am in the parking lot of Hickory Hollow Resort, 27922 Farm Road 1267, Shell Knob Mo. Bring your boat and a sack lunch and dress for the weather. For more info email rayandkarenwarren@gmail.com or call 870-654-4134.

2022 Cleanup Report

 

Madison County – Madison County cleanup was another success for the Kings Armada. We had 19 volunteers to celebrate a wonderful Earthday and were able to cover from Marshall Ford to Rockhouse Landing. A road crew was able to cover access points on Kings River and parts of War Eagle Creek. We recovered a ton of trash and 50 tires and a hundred pounds of metal.

 

 Thank you to the folks who helped. Also thank you to Madison County Solid Waste and Recycling Center, Tom and Cindy Rimkus, Kings River Outfitters and Hunnicutt Tree Service.
