RiverLink's' most popular volunteer program! Cleanups occur on a monthly basis and volunteers (groups and individuals) are always needed to help pick up trash to clean up our watershed. Volunteers with access to kayaks, canoes, chainsaws, and other equipment to get large debris out of the river are encouraged to participate.
