Description
Since 2005, volunteers at the Missouri River Cleanup in Yankton, SD have collected more than 100 tons of trash!
Join us for the 20th Missouri River Cleanup on Saturday, May 2nd from 8:00 am - 12:00 pm at Yankton’s Riverside Park. We will spend the morning cleaning up the river by picking up litter and debris. Most volunteers will get a boat ride to locations along the river to collect litter. Others who prefer to stay on land can help clean up the shoreline in Riverside Park.
Enjoy free coffee and doughnuts, a boat ride, a free t-shirt, time to spend with friends and family, and more while helping to keep our Missouri River beautiful! Lunch will also be provided by the Friends of Missouri National Recreational River and the Missouri River Events Committee.
Let us know you’re coming and register in advance by calling the park at 605-665-0209 x21 or send an email to: MNRR_VisitorInfo@nps.gov.
If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out!
We hope to see you on May 2nd!
