Register for one of our four check-in sites:

• Kensico Dam Plaza, Valhalla

• Westchester County Center, White Plains

• County Maintenance Shop, Tuckahoe

• Malcolm Wilson Park, Yonkers

All volunteers must sign our volunteer waiver or have it signed by a guardian if under 18.
The waiver can be viewed here, but we will also have paper copies on site.

What to know:

• Parking may be limited, so please consider a green alternative by carpooling, using the train, or walking!

• Children under 14 must be accompanied by an adult

• Volunteers will check in, get supplies and instruction from our Volunteer Coordinators, and then stroll the pathway collecting litter at your own pace.

• Volunteers can arrive any time between 10am and 12pm.  All litter will be brought back to check-in by 12:30pm so we can weigh everything and measure the impact we made!

• All tools, gloves, and supplies will be provided, but please bring your own water bottle.

• Please do not disturb anything that looks like it could be the belongings of an unhoused person. (Bags of collected bottles/cans, sleeping bags, clothing, tents, bikes)  

• Some parts of the pathway go along the road.  Be mindful of all signage and do not walk onto the roadway.

• Be aware of bikes and other park users, especially around sharp turns.

• Volunteers will be collecting litter from the land only.  Please do not enter the river or riverbank under any circumstances.

• If you would like to help us IN the river, check out our Clean River Project when it returns next spring!

• Check the forecast and dress for the weather! This event is rain or shine.  In extreme weather cases, check your email before leaving for the event.
