Santa Clara County Parks are hosting sites for National River Cleanup Day!
National River Cleanup is a national day of action to protect our rivers, watersheds, and wildlife from trash and debris. Since its inception in 1991, American Rivers have engaged more than 1.3 million volunteers who have participated in thousands of cleanups across the country, covering more than 261,000 miles of waterways and removing more than 32.5 million pounds of litter and debris.
Check the details below to see where and when they will be held, just be sure to pre-register since locations fill up quickly and walk-ups cannot always be accommodated.
No special skills are required for this event. Please bring a filled water bottle and sunscreen. Standard adult sized work gloves and pick up sticks are provided but you are welcome to bring your own.
All ages are welcome. If under 14 years old, please contact the Volunteer Office listed below to register for an online account.
