Harpeth River Floating Clean Up
Saturday, August 15, 2026, 10am-2pm CST
SPACE IS LIMITED!
Join us for a kayak paddle stream cleanup along the Harpeth River in Kingston Springs! By removing litter and debris from riparian areas and streams, we’ll help restore thriving streamside habitats for Tennessee’s wildlife while safeguarding water quality. We’ll collect trash and debris and learn more about how to be a lifelong clean water advocate and river steward.
Kayaks and paddles will be provided by Harpeth River State Park. Please bring your own life jacket if accessible; life jackets will be provided as needed. All necessary tools and equipment will be provided. Please wear sturdy closed-toe shoes that can get wet, sunscreen, and weather-appropriate clothing. Quick-drying fabrics are better than cotton clothing for paddling. And please bring your own water, nutrition, medications, sunscreen, and bug spray as needed.
Thank you for helping us protect clean water and rivers in Tennessee!
