Clean Up Green UpJoin us for the 33rd Annual Cleanup-Greenup, co-sponsored by Colorado Parks & Wildlife (CPW) and the Greater Arkansas River Nature Association (GARNA). Volunteers will work together to clean up 152 miles of the Arkansas River in preparation for Spring runoff.
Trash can be left behind any AHRA recreation site three-panel sign, placed in the dumpster at the Buena Vista Community Center, or brought to our trash drop-off site at Riverside Park in Salida.
All registered participants will be given lunch, which will be served at Riverside Park. Please join us for the Gear Up For Summer event, also being held at Riverside Park. Free PFDs will be given to the first 50 youth. Other community organizations will be present, helping our local community to gear up for a safe and fun summer.
