Evolver Spores: Day of Action -- Hooch Kayak and River Cleanup!

Evolver Spores: Day of Action

In just over one year, Evolver Spores have spread across the US and abroad, carrying the seeds of a new planetary culture. More than 40 regional groups have sprouted up during these months, bringing together a diverse, conscious community to explore topics critical to our time. But Evolvers don’t simply meet and discuss; they take action in manifesting the world they want to create. Over the past year, we’ve seen the Regionals initiate alternative currencies, beach clean-ups, healing circles, permaculture gardens, eco-festivals and more.

For this month’s Spore, the entire Evolver network will activate to create positive change in our communities. Join our agents of transformation in coordinating river clean-ups, “renegade gardening,” community foresting, assisting flood victims in Hungary, and other ways we can be of service to our world.

For the Day of Action Spore, Evolver Atlanta is teaming up with Rivers Alive for a kayaking & cleanup event on the Chattahoochee. We can’t think of a better way to revitalize and give back to our precious waterways, while having a blast at the same time!

A 5-mile kayak trip down the Hooch from Buford Dam to Abbots Bridge, cleaning up the river as we ride!

** Must be a strong swimmer!! **

We’ll be meeting at the Whole Foods on Ponce de Leon at 8 AM to carpool to Up the River Outfitters, about 45 minutes north of Atlanta. (Or you can meet us there at 9 AM.) From there, we hop a ride with the rest of the Rivers Alive group up to Buford Dam where our route begins! This will be a 3-4 hour kayak trip, so pack a lunch, and bring snacks and plenty of water.
