Join us June 3rd, 2023 for our first river clean up of the season! This kayaking clean up will take place on the Monocacy river in Frederick County Maryland.This event is a kayaking river clean up so participants are asked to bring their own kayak or canoe. Transportation for your kayaks will be provided at the get – out spot to take you back to your vehicle.
Although this is a kayaking event, there is still plenty to do for those that don’t have their own boats. The boat ramps and trails near the river need maintenance as well. We hope that these volunteers would be willing to help clean the trash and debris from these areas.
Meet Location: 1801 Monocacy Blvd, Frederick, MD 21701 ( This is next to the old Walmart parking lot, which is now the At Home store)
Meet Time: 10 am
Duration: We estimate about a 3 hour cleanup.
Difficulty: This section of the river is a short paddle. Classified as a class 1, flat water is to be expected. This would be a perfect paddle for children to participate in.
What To Bring: Because we will be on the river for a few hours, we ask that all participants pack their own lunch or bring some snacks.
Water will be provided to you by our sponsors.
What Is Provided: Our organization will provide waters, trash bags, poker sticks (for trash), gloves (optional), and transportation for your boats back to your vehicle.
Get – Out Spot: Pinecliff Park, 8350 Pinecliff Park Rd, Frederick, MD 21704
Have fun: You as volunteers are the lifeline of this operation. Because of your efforts over the last 4 years, we have been able to remove thousands of pounds of trash from our local waterways. You deserve to have fun!
As we paddle down river you are free to do as you wish. You don’t necessarily have to stay with the group. All we ask is that you pick up any trash you see along the way.
We want everyone to enjoy themselves and have a good time enjoying nature, all while helping a greater cause.
