Scoop and Paddle at Thompson Boat House, DC

About this event:

Join Potomac Conservancy and Guest Services for a fun litter cleanup on the water this summer: Scoop and Paddle! A lot of the trash we see along our waterways can’t be accessed on land so we’re taking to the water! Participating in this cleanup event means you can kayak in the Potomac River’s tributaries to remove harder to get litter. This event will take place at Thompson Boat House, DC

Secure your spot today to take action for your hometown river! 

Some of the parks we clean up are tricky to navigate to! We recommend using these coordinates to ensure you find our meeting point easily: 38.900704, -77.058312

We’ll provide all the event supplies (trash bags, gloves, trash grabbers, etc.), but we strongly recommend that you bring your own if you have some 

Once registered, please expect a reminder email the Wednesday before the event with more information regarding our updated safety protocols and what to expect
