Join the Cornell Club of Washington and the Anacostia Watershed Society (AWS) on Saturday, April 5th to celebrate Earth Day!  
 
Our goal is to have at least 30 CCW members roll up their sleeves, help clean-up the Anacostia River Watershed, and have a great time.  Volunteer tasks will consist mainly of light manual labor, including plant care, removal of invasive species, mulching, and more. Volunteers should wear comfortable clothing. Gardening gloves will be provided by AWS, but you are to bring your favorite gloves with you! The more, the merrier - please feel free to bring family and friends. 
We will be working in Anacostia, DC and there will be a post-cleanup celebration with free food and drinks at the RFK Stadium Parking lot sponsored by AWS partner Seafarers' Yacht Club.

  • Registration: 8:30am - 9am
  • Cleanup: 9am - 12pm

The Celebration will be held at RFK Stadium, the same location as the clean-up event.
