Help beautify our rivers by picking up trash + removing invasive species
We’re focusing on areas along our creeks where trash has collected and small patches of invasive Arundo have been spotted—and we need your help to clean it up and protect our waterways. This event will center around trash pickup and beautification efforts, making this vital community space cleaner, safer, and more enjoyable for people, wildlife, and future creek restoration projects. We'll also target a few small stands of Arundo to stop its spread.
The cleanup site is easily accessible from The Loop—perfect for arriving by bike or even on foot if you’re nearby!
We’ll provide all the tools and supplies you need, but feel free to bring your own gloves, water bottle, and loppers if you have them. Every bag of trash removed makes a difference — let’s work together to keep our rivers beautiful!
This event is organized through WMG’s River Run Network (RRN). Members work together to learn about and steward our creeks and rivers through creek walks, restoration activities, river clean-ups, and educational workshops. If you are not yet a member, we will add you to the RRN when you register for this event. Membership is free and includes a regular e-newsletter with upcoming events.
