Every year, River Heroes help to clean the Smith. Join us on August 17th and give a few hours back to the river you love. Bring your canoes, jon boats, kayaks, and river shoes to the annual Smith River Clean-up.
Volunteers can choose the morning of the event whether they’d like to be on water or land for the cleanup. You can choose to stay for a short time or the entire event. Around Noon, all volunteers will be treated to a catered lunch at the Smith River Sports Complex.
If you want to do your own thing but still need bags and gloves, swing by the Sports Complex and we will have supplies. The best boats for clean-ups are jon boats and canoes but you can bring your kayak and drag a trash bag alongside. We will help shuttle you where you need to go to start, or gladly take you back to your vehicle after the end of the clean-up. Waivers are required to be signed for this event.
Who: You, ready to get dirty, water shoes, dry fit clothing, and PFDs (lifejackets) are required for river cleanup.
What: Clean up our beautiful river and give back to nature with a land or water cleanup! (BYOB) Bring your own boat!
When: August 17 from 9 a.m. to noon (lunch provided)
Where: Meet at Smith River Sports Complex River Access- turn left at the warehouse/driving range and follow to the end.
