REVIEW OUR COOKIE POLICYThe St. Patrick's Day River Cleanup welcomes individuals, families, or groups for a comprehensive public cleanup on both land and water. The primary focus will be the Nansemond River in the Downtown Suffolk area. Participants opting for river cleanup need to bring their own kayak or canoe. Supply cleanup essentials, including reflective vests, grabbers, gloves, and bags. For those cleaning from the river, longer grabbers will be provided. If you choose land-based cleanup, you can work from the wharf or be guided to specific nearby sites that require attention. It's crucial to tackle litter before it reaches the river! For more information, please call (757) 514-7604 or email KSB@suffolkva.us.
