Please join Rock Creek Conservancy,  Montgomery Parks, and the Mill Creek Towne Garden Club for our 2022 EXTREME CLEANUP of Mill Creek Stream! This annual event is a watershed-wide cleanup movement with the goal of total trash removal throughout Rock Creek, its tributaries, and surrounding neighborhoods and parklands. We hope you’ll join us!

Montgomery Parks requires all volunteers to be fully vaccinated against covid-19 in order to participate in events. Please adhere to this requirement by confirming your vaccination status when completing this registration. Volunteers ages 5 and up who are fully vaccinated may volunteer for this event.

Please visit this CDC page, which discusses the considerations for gatherings and notes the additional safety when taking place outdoors.

Activity: Volunteers will participate in a socially-distant trash cleanup as part of Extreme Cleanup.

This cleanup will be done individually or with members of the same “bubble.” Grab a trash bag and your mask (if needed), wear some boots or sturdy shoes, and help us pick up trash in Mill Creek Stream, or pick up litter around the creek. Please follow all CDC and county guidelines regarding social distancing and public health precautions.

Complete your cleanup anytime during Friday, April 22nd through Sunday, April 24th.

What to Wear: Please dress appropriately for the work and weather. We recommend wearing long sleeves and sturdy boots or sneakers.

What to Bring: Please bring a water bottle, face mask (if needed), and your own gloves if you can. We will provide trash bags.

Please do NOT attend this event if you are or have been experiencing symptoms of illness.
