What is playaking? Picking up litter while kayaking! Join American Canoe Association-certified instructors and take to the water in kayaks to reach and remove litter that can’t be accessed from shore. Spend a morning with like-minded citizens recreating with purpose and making the waters of Rock Run Rookery healthier and prettier. After a brief introduction, we will head out on the water with pickers and receptacles to remove trash that can only be reached by boat. 

Fee: $5 per person.
Age: Ages 18 and older.

Registration required by Wednesday, Aug. 5, by calling 815-722-4121 or online: https://anc.apm.activecommunities.com/fpdwc/activity/search/detail/10149?onlineSiteId=0&from_original_cui=true
