  • Pickers – Collect litter along the riverbanks and rocky areas.
  • Swimmers & Divers – Help retrieve debris from beneath the water’s surface (wetsuits recommended).
  • Support Crew – Assist with organizing collected trash and ensuring proper disposal.

This is a great opportunity to make a direct impact on the health of the Yahara River, enjoy the outdoors, and work alongside others who care about our local environment. Register today and be part of this community effort!
