RIVERFEST 2026 - River Cleanup

RIVERFEST 2026 - River Cleanup

Two Rivers ParkGlenwood Springs, CO
Overview

Join our community in cleaning up the two rivers in our town, demonstrating environmental stewardship for the betterment of our rivers.

Volunteer are the Key!

Our volunteers spend hours collecting carelessly discarded trash and identifying hazards that are too large to move, all while using their own rafts or walking along the bank. They climb the steep slopes, wade into deep water, and work hard to bring unmanageable items into view so they can be properly disposed of. Often hot, though the water is low in August, it is their chance to make a substantial environmental impact on our local aquatic and riparian ecosystems.

AFTER THE CLEANUP- IT'S TIME TO CLEBRATE!

  • Arrive your back at Two Rivers Park from the cleanup: sort and dump collected materials at the boat ramp
  • Provided: lunch, beer, live music, activities, and fun.
  • Gift for volunteers (SCHWAG BAG)

23-Year Tradition

The Colorado and Roaring Fork Rivers are vital resources to the landscape and economy of the City of Glenwood Springs and the region. Our river cleanup activity brings together community volunteers and sponsors to preserve these important aquatic ecosystems, all while demonstrating positive environmental stewardship.
