Each year on a bright Saturday morning, thousands of Virginians simultaneously descend on the rivers, streams, and beaches of the Chesapeake Bay watershed to remove harmful litter and debris. Clean the Bay Day has been a staple for Virginia's Chesapeake Bay community for over three decades. Join volunteers at Caledon State Park for a wagon ride out to the beach to give back to our local waterways. All cleanup supplies will be provided on site, please wear appropriate footwear and your willing smile!
This event is free to attend, and parking is free on the day of the event. Please let us know to expect you by calling 540-663-3861 to register.
About Clean the Bay Day
Each year Virginia State Parks participates in the Chesapeake Bay Foundation’s Clean the Bay Day, an event dedicated to protecting and preserving the Chesapeake Bay watershed. Park visitors are invited to join a clean-up to help remove litter, debris and pollution from rivers, streams and shorelines that feed into the Bay, contributing to the health of the Bay’s ecosystem and ensuring cleaner water and safer habitats for wildlife.
