Earth Day Cleanup: Saturday, April 22, 2023

Celebrate Earth Day by joining the Guardians of the West Fork and Harrison Recreational Trails for a trash clean up. Meet at 10:00 AM at Clarksburg Veterans Park rail-trail parking area on the baseball complex/boat ramp side (39.268978, -80.360043) to receive supplies, directions, and safety tips. Volunteers will then be dispersed to locations along the rail trail. We will provide gloves, trash bags, and water. Weather forecast is calling for rain, so bring your raincoat!

River Bank Cleanup March 2021

It was a good day and an incredible effort by our river keepers at the Guardians of the West Fork River Hartland Dam cleanup. The dam area along Riverside Drive was cleaned up and the opposite side of the river at the Camden Street Rail Trail area. Approximately 700 pounds of trash was collected and 2 tires. Additionally, the dedicated recyclers hauled off glass, plastic, and aluminum (weight?). Special thanks to scouts Eli and Levi for your contributions. It is fantastic to see area youth involved in conservation efforts.

Thank you to everybody who participated in the clean-up.
