Description

Join FoLAR for the return of the Great LA River CleanUp! Masks and social distancing will be required. See details below. The River needs YOU! This summer, join FoLAR and our partners for a series of small, in-person cleanups to collect trash and prevent waste from polluting our watershed and urban waterways. Together, we’ll make a collective impact and do our part to tend to the vibrant urban ecosystems that thrive throughout Los Angeles. All registered volunteers will receive a CleanUp Starter Kit, available for pickup at a local REI or mailed to your provided address, with the essentials to participate, including trash bags and a pair of plant-based disposable gloves. As part of our COVID-19 Safety Protocols, additional supplies may not be provided on site. Lewis MacAdams Riverfront Park, named in honor of our founder, is a beautiful park located along the LA River Greenway and Bike Path in the Elysian Valley. The Park features a sculpture to honor Lewis MacAdams, the father of the River Movement and indisputably the River's most influential advocate. The River has an earthen bottom here, and you're sure to find a heron perching on a willow tree or a red tailed hawk soaring above.
