Earth Day Volunteers
Join this community effort by cleaning up streets and creeks around the City of Napa for Earth Day!
Keep Napa clean by preventing trash from getting to our waterways, then celebrate the river at Napa’s annual Earth Day Festival!
Chose the site that works best for you, each site will have a captain you can check-in with, grab some gloves, a bucket, and sign a waiver and you’re good to go!
Sites
- Downtown Napa: behind Firefighter’s Museum at the corner of Main and Pearl Streets. Important!–Volunteers are encouraged to clean the downtown streets and stay away from the reach of Napa Creek where construction was just finished so that the creek banks have time to stabilize and new plantings are not disturbed.
- South Wetlands: southern end of Jefferson St.
- Salvador Creek/ Vintage High: meet at quad by gym
- Oxbow District: north end of the market parking lot next to the river
- Kennedy Park: near boat ramp
Details
- Gear: Buckets, latex gloves, and limited trash grabbers will be provided at each site. BYO buckets, gloves, and grabbers if you got ’em! Wear sunscreen and clothes that you are willing to get dirty. Please wear closed-toed shoes only.
- Water: Though water will be provided, in the interest of conserving resources and stopping the cycle of plastic waste in our waterways, organizers encourage you to bring your own water in re-usable containers.
- Waiver: Children under 18 are required to have a liability waiver form signed by a parent or legal guardian before they can participate. Download the English waiver HERE
- Sponsors: Earth Day Napa River Cleanup is coordinated by the Napa County RCD with funding provided by the Napa County Flood Control and Water Conservation District.
