The 13th Annual Spokane River Clean-Up is September 17, 2016

Each year, hundreds of volunteers spend their Saturday morning picking up garbage and recyclable materials from our public lands along the Spokane River. In 2015, volunteers removed about 4 tons of debris – from High Bridge Park all the way to the University District and we sorted and recycled about a ton of the material collected.

The Spokane River Clean-Up is a great chance to give back for the great recreational opportunities our river corridor provides all year long! Registration for this year’s event is now open! To register, please go to www.spokanerivercleanup.org.

This is a fun and important event that has a huge impact on our river and its surroundings. The Spokane River Clean-Up is made possible by the service of about 100 key volunteers who go the extra mile to make the clean-up effective, efficient, safe, and fun. You can volunteer to for the clean-up crew or in a leadership role.

If you are interested in volunteering for a key role, please contact Danny Murphy at riversidestatepark1@gmail.com or (509) 795-4609, or Lindsay Box at lbox@landscouncil.org or (509) 209-2851.
