The 35th Annual Clean-Up-A-Thon will occur on Saturday, March 22, 2025, and coincide with National Water Day! How do you join? You can complete this form to sign up for your team. After you complete the form, Haw River Assembly will help you find an appropriate clean-up location, provide you with the needed supplies, and coordinate trash pick-up at your designated location. We’ll be accepting team sign-ups through March 10th, 2025, as supplies and locations can become limited quickly. Individuals should reach out to events@hawriver.org if they’re looking to join other teams or do a solo cleanup.

The Haw River Clean-Up-A-Thon is our annual clean-up event that has been raising watershed-wide awareness about the impacts of our consumption habits and bringing people together at the river and local creeks! Clean-ups are a popular way to take action for the natural spaces we love the most, and what an amazing way to show off your love for the river than to start right in your community. The 34th Annual Clean-Up-A-Thon took place on March 16, 2024, this year, and we had over 318 volunteers who retrieved 351 bags of trash and 20 tires from streams and creeks in the Haw River Watershed.
