Boat Ramp Cleanup

Join Us for a River Cleanup Day!

Come out and make a difference in our community by helping us clean up our beautiful local rivers. We’ll be teaming up with local fishing guides, conservation groups, and community members to pick up trash and debris at key access points along the South Holston and Watauga Rivers. This is a great chance to give back to the waters we all love, meet like-minded folks, and enjoy a rewarding day outdoors.

Event Details:

• 📅 Date: Saturday, October 11

• ⏰ Meeting Time: 8:00 AM

• 📍 Meeting Location: Hardee’s parking lot in Piney Flats, TN

• 🧤 Supplies: We’ll provide garbage bags, gloves, and waters — just bring yourself, and a positive attitude!

Perks for Volunteers:

• ☕ Free Breakfast: Start your day right with breakfast provided for all participants.

• 🎉 After-Cleanup Celebration: At 4:00 PM, we’ll wrap up with a fun gathering at Appalachian Sun Brewery (221 S Sycamore St, Elizabethton, TN). Enjoy food, prizes, and a chance to relax and celebrate the hard work we’ve done together.

This event is about more than just cleaning up trash—it’s about protecting the rivers that bring so much joy to our community, from fishing and paddling to simply enjoying their natural beauty. Whether you’re a seasoned angler, a student, or a family looking for a meaningful way to spend the day, your help will make a big difference.

We hope to see you there with friends, family, or anyone who shares a love for our rivers!
