Warm Springs Russian River Cleanup

Join Russian Riverkeeper to help protect the Russian River from trash!

It’s easy to participate and we provide all the gloves, trash grabbers, and bags and haul away the trash!

Participants will meet their team leaders in orange shirts in the parking lot to sign in and get started. From the meeting location in the parking lot, students will break into walking groups based on where the trash is. You are encouraged to wear sturdy shoes, bring water, a hat, and anything you might need for a walking river adventure!

Volunteers are the heart of our mission. Your efforts keep the Russian River clean, protect wildlife, and preserve this beautiful watershed for future generations. Every piece of trash we remove stops litter from washing downstream, preventing it from reaching the ocean. We can’t save the ocean if we keep sending our trash to it.

By taking action now, we can break the cycle of pollution. Together, we can reduce the Great Pacific Garbage Patch—already as big as Texas—and protect the River from harmful microplastics that form when litter is left behind. Join us in making a lasting difference!
