Upper Duwamish River Boat Cleanup [ July 12]

July 12 @ 8:30 am - 11:30 am

Under our Summer Cleanup Series and Salmon and Legacy Debris Project, Puget Soundkeeper is hosting the final Upper Duwamish River Boat Cleanup for the summer in Tukwila, WA. In partnership with the River Access Paddle Program, we are hoping to provide up to 10 double kayaks (for 20 participants), as well as provide cleanup supplies, water, snacks and help get folks back to their cars at the end of the cleanup.

We will also welcome folks who can bring their own boat to the river (a kayak, canoe, or raft works best). We will need an additional 10-12 people who can help out on land at our base camps (at the put-in and take-out locations). Youth must be 15 years or older to participate and accompanied by a parent or guardian.

If you have a flatbed truck that you don’t mind getting a little dirty, we could use 1-2 trucks to haul debris from a drop off site half-way down the river. Contact Anna Bachmann at the email address below if you can help.

If you don’t have a boat, but would like to register for the kayak cleanup, RSVP here.

If you have your own boat and would like to bring it and participate, please RSVP here.

To register for the land-based cleanup, RSVP here.
