About this event
Join United By Blue, Public Lands, Allegheny Cleanways, and Friends of the Riverfront for a Community Cleanup of the Ohio River! Meet us at the Three Rivers Heritage Trailhead at Kroll Dr., under the West End Bridge. We'll be picking up trash from the Three Rivers Heritage Trail and riverbanks of the Ohio.
Thanks to our partnership with Public Lands, all volunteers will receive a free Reusable DIY Cleanup Kit and t-shirt at the cleanup. All other cleanup supplies will be provided by United By Blue, including extra gloves, bags, and safety materials. Please wear closed toed shoes and clothes you don't mind getting a bit dirty. Please bring your own reusable water bottle filled - we'll have water to refill as needed.
Details to note:
- United By Blue will adhere to all local regulations pertaining to the COVID-19 pandemic. This event is fully outdoors and efforts will be made to keep volunteer groups spread out. Please bring a mask with you for close proximity situations. Our reusable cleanup supplies are industrially cleaned between uses, but we welcome volunteers to bring their own supplies if they feel more comfortable.
- All United By Blue cleanups are family friendly and ability inclusive. If you have anticipate needing ability-related accommodations, please contact cleanup@unitedbyblue.com ahead of time.
