Details

Join the Surfrider Portland Chapter for a paddle clean up on Ross Island on July 5th! Usually the 4th of July is notorious for leaving high pollution near the waterways, so let's make sure we do our part to keep it clean upstream. This is a free event, and open to the public. Please register via the link below so we can get a proper head count.

We encourage participants to bring their own floatation devices (SUP/Kayak/Canoe) + PFD's and meet us at Willamette Park near the boat-launch ramp at 10am. We will paddle from the boat-launch over to Ross Island, disembark and do a clean up on the island, and then paddle back to Willamette Park.
If you prefer to keep dry, we will host a clean up at the Park as well.
See you soon!
