Throwback to the 2025 Down the River Cleanup! Thanks to all those who camp out and volunteered.

Last day to register for the annual Down the Clackamas River Clean Up! See you all tomorrow

Sign up now:

2025 Down the Clackamas River Cleanup The Clackamas Down the River Cleanup is the largest and longest-running on-water cleanup in Oregon. Join a fun river float and help us keep the Clackamas clean and and beautiful! After we clean the river, we gather at Barton Park for a BBQ celebration.

Hi all, volunteer registration is looking better.

Would still love more people on the Riverside to Clackamette Section to float.

Additionally, we are looking for GARBAGE SCOWS for Carver to Riverside as we have none signed up for that section right now. Garbage Scows have large drift boats, rafts & canoes to handle large irregular trash. We will bring some extra tarps if needed to help protect your boat.

Looking forward to seeing you all on Sunday!

Great 21st annual Clackamas river cleanup! Over 160 people participated and we cleaned over 25 miles of river.
