  • 2019 Annual Report
    TEXT FROM THE PRESIDENT & EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR On behalf of the Dog River Clearwater Revival (DRCR) Board of Directors and our contracted staff, we thank everyone who, for the past twenty-five years, shared their time and resources with DRCR. Celebrating a quarter-century of promoting, protecting and improving the water quality of and access to Dog River and its urban tributary creeks was a significant milestone in the organization’s history. Most notable in our 2019 anniversary year was the award of a $328K EPA/Gulf of Mexico Program grant for implantation of the Comprehensive Trash Abatement Program for the Dog River Watershed. Identified as a priority project in the Dog River Watershed Management Plan (WMP) released in 2018, the problem of litter in our waterways brought us together in partnership with the Mobile Bay National Estuary Program, Mobile Baykeeper and Partners for Environmental Progress in a plan to reduce litter in the river by fifty percent by the end of 2021. We’d also like to thank the City of Mobile, Council and Administration, for supporting the goals of the WMP and our EPA grant. Further, this project allowed DRCR to expand our part-time paid team to two with the addition of an assistant project director. As we enter 2020, we look forward to an exciting year. We’ll hosts more cleanups and other fun events like the spring Mudbottom Music Festival and the Great Drift Paddle along the Dog River Scenic Blueway, celebrating its tenth year. The fall will see another of our popular events celebrating its 10th anniversary – the Dog River Fishing Tournament and of course don’t miss the one time a year opportunity to run/walk across the iconic Dog River Bridge during our annual Ghost Chase 5K & 1-mile Goblin Gallop.
