19th Annual South Platte River Cleanup: On-Water
This is one of the only days you will see boats float down the South Platte River, and it is quite a sight to see!
Join us with your own craft to float down a 2-4 mile stretch and pick up trash along the way! After the cleanup, we'll head to Odell Brewing Co. for a free beer and big prize giveaways!
Additional information, including the shuttle, is below. Please RSVP to reserve a spot.

- NOTE: In previous years, we've had to cancel the cleanup due to flows and we are not planning to do so this year. However, if flows are below 100 CFS we will only allow packrats, ducky's and SUP's. Thank you for understanding!
Event Info
The Game Plan
From the put-in we will paddle downstream and pick up trash along a 2-4 mile stretch of the South Platte (the exact stretch will be announced closer to the event).
We will take out at Fishback Park to unload, pack-out trash, and join the other cleanup participants. Then we’ll head over to Odell Brewing Co for the after-party.

When You Arrive
A Protect Our Rivers volunteer will greet you and direct you where to unload. Please be quick about unloading your gear as space is limited.
After you unload your gear, check in at the Protect Our Rivers tent for information on shuttling your vehicle, and to gather all of the supplies and information you will need for a fun day ahead!

Shuttle
To utilize the shuttle, meet at the put-in no later than 9:30 am
Once again, Confluence Kayaks will be providing a complimentary shuttle to transport participants from the put-in to the take-out. They have been a key part of this cleanup since the beginning, and we wouldn't be able to pull it off without their support!
