πŸŽ‡ Please join Central Florida RECON (CFR) for our first cleanup of 2026, as we launch on Lake Ivanhoe in Orlando.

Our events are free to attend. We will have six kayaks available to use for the event on a first to arrive first to launch basis. We equip all of our kayaks with grabbers, a personal floatation device (PFD), trash bin and paddle. For shoreline volunteers, we have buckets, grabbers and latex gloves to share. There is a paved walking path around the lake covered mostly by a healthy tree canopy so if all kayaks are claimed you can pick up trash around the perimeter of the lake before it migrates into Lake Ivanhoe. If you have your own paddle-craft, please feel free to bring it.

You will be asked to sign a Cleanup Event Sign in and Indemnity Waiver upon arrival.

The event is scheduled for two hours. At the end of the cleanup we weigh the trash, pull out the CFR banner and take a group photo.

If rain or heavy wind is in the forecast for the day of the cleanup, check here on Friday night for event updates.

Please bring plenty of water to keep hydrated, a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen and shoes that can get wet.

See you at the lake πŸŒ…
