Join us to canoe the river Saturday morning and clean-up trash along the banks. All are welcome, we will provide gloves, trash bags, trash grabbers, and buckets. Participants are able to paddle around the launch area to clean-up trash, and can head upstream (up to one mile), then paddle back to the launch downstream.
Registration Link Coming soon, stay tuned!
We have a limited number of canoes available for use, so register early! Note: those wishing to use one of our canoes must reserve early online with a $10 deposit that can be refunded in cash at the event.
Folks who wish to bring their own canoes or kayaks are welcome to join us, but must sign a $10 online waiver of liability with the American Canoe Association (that can be refunded in cash at the event).
All paddling participants MUST wear a life jacket (which can be provided for you if you need to borrow one). Participants should wear layered clothing to stay warm, bring water, and note there are no bathrooms at the launch site.
This clean-up will take place at our Crompton canoe launch in West Warwick.
We are happy to provide documentation of community service hours if needed.
