This event is co-sponsored by EcoAction Arlington and the Washington Sailing Marina.
Join EcoAction Arlington at our first Potomac River Kayak Cleanup. We will cleanup the Potomac River around Daingerfield Island and the mouth of Four Mile Run. Our partners are the Washington Sailing Marina (WSM) and the National Park Service (NPS). We will follow WSM safety protocols and there will be a Rescue boat at the cleanup. We ask that you have no open wounds due to levels of bacteria in the Potomac River and that you sign waivers from WSM and the NPS.
The cleanup will be followed by a simple breakfast provided by Washington Sailing Marina and will be as zero waste as possible.
Details coming soon.
Please also consider getting involved with the Adopt-a-Street program through which you can help to keep your community clean by supporting litter control on a section of an Arlington Street. Learn more about how you can Adopt-a-Street through Arlington County.
