Event details

Chattahoochee Riverkeeper is pleased to host this cleanup in Atlanta to celebrate the MLK National Day of Service and to continue our efforts toward a Trash-Free Chattahoochee on MONDAY, January 19 from 9am to 12pm.

The exact address will be provided to registered volunteers a week before the event, but generally the cleanup is ITP. Why? Because rain events move the trash and we want to pick a location that needs our attention the most. Gloves and cleanup supplies provided.

Will I get dirty and potentially wet? YES!
Whether land based or paddling, all our cleanups involve getting in or around the river or a tributary – this is where the trash is. But there are opportunities to stay dry. Either way, we promise you’ll have fun!

YOUTH PARTICIPATION: Youth between the ages of 10 (minimum age) and 16 must have a Parent/Guardian onsite under their supervision the duration of the cleanup. No drop-offs are permitted.

This registration is for you only (and your children if applicable). Everyone must register individually.

Thank you for volunteering!

Chattahoochee RiverLands Pedestrian Trail Bridge

The City of Smyrna and Trust for Public Land are exploring a new pedestrian and bicycle bridge across the Chattahoochee River. This bridge could improve connections between existing and planned trail systems in Smyrna and Atlanta while creating new opportunities for recreation, mobility, and access to the river. Share your input on project priorities, potential uses, and how this connection could serve the community.
