Come join us for the Down the River Cleanup on September 8! We will be sweeping a 22-mile stretch of the Clackamas River from Milo McIver State Park to Clackamette Park for trash.
You can choose to volunteer on-land or on-water. All on-land volunteers meet at Riverside Park.
On-water volunteers choose between four sections:
- Milo McIver to Barton Park
- Barton Park to Carver Park
- Carver Park to Riverside Park
- Riverside Park to Clackamette Park
What is provided: bags for garbage and recycling, gloves, trash grabbers, safety captains, waivers, and a FREE cookout afterwards.
What you provide: help cleaning the river! Your own boat/kayak, your own shuttle, life vest, hat, sunscreen, water, snacks.
Clackamas Water Environment Services is proud to support events like this that help protect water quality.
