Annual Clean-Up-A-Thon

Our watershed-wide clean up is celebrated the 3rd weekend in March. HRA needs leaders like you organizing trash pick up so we can make sure all of our waters are clean! Find out more information here.

You don’t have to run to celebrate with us! We need volunteers to help with Haw River Island Ramble by assisting patrons, helping with registration, and more. Learn more about the race here.


Annual Haw River Festival

Celebrated on the first Saturday of May, the Haw River Assembly puts on a festival with live music, food trucks, river activities, and more! Volunteers can help with our booths and activities or with set up and break down. Email events@hawriver.org for more information!


Annual Learning Celebration

The Haw River Learning Celebration is a field trip to the Haw River for fourth graders each fall. Since we began the program in 1990, over 48,000 students have participated. Schools attend one of our three locations in Chatham, Alamance, and Rockingham counties and spend a day doing activities along the river, enjoying a picnic lunch and puppet show.
