Water-based lower salt river cleanup with arizona adventure group

In early September, we teamed up with our friends from Arizona Adventure Group for our annual Water-based Lower Salt River Cleanup.

36 volunteers, including 2 youth volunteers, helped us remove 294.2 pounds of trash & debris from the river and riverbanks! We started at Pebble Beach Recreation Area & floated down to Phon D Sutton, stopping along the way to pick up trash.

Thank you to everyone who volunteered with us and made a huge impact on the Lower Salt River! Thank you to Monique & Edgar from Arizona Adventure Group (AAG) for teaming up with us again, it's always so much fun!⁠ We are grateful for everything you do to help raise funds to support our mission! We can't to team up again! Check out our Camp Creek Wash Cleanup with AAG earlier this year HERE.
