If you care about the environment and don't mind getting a little dirty, then this may be the perfect fit for you!
Join us on June 13th from 8am - 11am at Grant Park for a Community River Clean-up! Come work outdoors with like-minded members of the community to help remove thousands of pounds of trash in just three hours and help create a beacon of green space in the heart of Mission Valley!
Each year, San Diego River Park Foundation volunteers remove more than 200,000 pounds of trash from our namesake waterway. Without our amazing volunteers, this trash would be left to pollute native animal habitats, parks and public spaces, leach contaminants into the water, and wash out into our ocean and beaches!
IMPORTANT: This is an 18+ volunteer event. We will be targeting a specific site known to have many heavy, special-removal items - come prepared to work hard! This will be a heavy-hauling day!
Park + Meet: Meet in the Grant Park Parking lot. The address is 2450 Camino Del Rio North. Turn LEFT at the light on Discovery Way into the parking lot. Please park in the cul-de-sac before the park entrance.
