Help keep our waterways clean!

Details: Youth will help the clean-up efforts along our Virginia Beach waterways to remove marine debris, improve water quality, and keep our city’s waters healthy and safe.

Location: The exact location will be determined by Lynnhaven River NOW the week before the event.

Special Considerations: Appropriate dress and shoe wear are required. Cleanups usually occur in brushy, thorny, and muddy terrain which require full body protection. Closed-toed, sturdy shoes that can get wet and dirty should be worn for land-based cleanups. Also bring a small bag, water bottle and snack.

Organization being served: Lynnhaven River NOW’s mission is to educate and engage the community and partner organizations in restoring and protecting our waterways and natural areas and to restore lost habitat such as oyster reefs, salt marshes, native plants, forests, and other buffers that help to filter polluted runoff and protect our waterways and their marine life.
