SUMMARY:MEGA Trash Bash @ Columbia Island Marina/LBJ Grove (Paddling OPTIONAL!)
DESCRIPTION:Join Potomac Riverkeeper Network for a MEGA trash bash and help divert plastic pollution from the river around Columbia Island Marina/LBJ Grove! \n\n\n\nWho?\n\n\n\nPRKN is partnering with Potomac Conservancy\, Friends of Mount Vernon Trail\, and Four Mile Run Conservancy for a Mega Trash Cleanup event! We’ll be hosting events at four different locations to make an even bigger impact on the Potomac River and nearby trails. Volunteers of all ages are welcome\, and no prior experience is necessary. Registration is free but required. \n\n\n\nParking Info\n\n\n\nPlease head to Columbia Island Non-Motorized Launch Dock\, where there should be plenty of spaces to be found! The closest parking can be found here\, just take a right turn when you drive in the entrance. \n\n\n\nYou can only access the parking from the south-going lanes of the Parkway\, so anyone coming from the north will have to turn around using the roads by the Memorial Ave traffic circle at the end of the Memorial Bridge. \n\n\n\nOPTIONAL Kayaking\n\n\n\nThere will be the opportunity to launch personal kayaks\, if participants are interested in cleaning from on the water. We will also have a very limited supply of kayaks for rent. The cost of kayak rental will be to $10/person for the event. \n\n\n\nNote: All parties interested in being part of the kayaking component of the event – please reach out to Bill Szymanski\, captain of the Trash-Free Boat Brigade\, at billszy@gmail.com. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nWant to hang on the island for a bit after the event? We recommend checking out Island Time Bar & Grill! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLOCATIONColumbia Island MarinaGeorge Washington Mem Pkwy\, Arlington\, VA 22202 \n\n\n\n\n\nREGISTER HERE
