“The Conasauga River is one of the most biologically diverse rivers in the U.S. Its watershed is home to 90 native fish species, more than a dozen of which are endangered or rare, including the Conasauga Logperch, a fish found nowhere else in the world. The Conasauga historically supported at least 44 mussel species, but, sadly, only about 20 species remain.”
Wear sturdy shoes or boots. Gloves, long pants, and long sleeved shirts are recommended. Hip or
chest waders are useful, but are not required. Trash bags and cleanup supplies provided. Volunteers will receive a free tshirt as a thank you for helping to clean-up our community’s beautiful river and streams!
