Rivanna Trail - 250 & Hydraulic Road Cleanup

Join us as we clean up the Rivanna Trail at 250 & Hydraulic! 🧤

We’re heading back to the Rivanna Trail near 250 and Hydraulic Road, where we removed five abandoned tents and 40 bags of litter in September:
🏕️ Abandoned campsites: two along the trail near 250 and Hydraulic
🌲 Rivanna Trail: general litter along the trail and its edges
🌊 Meadow Creek banks: weather permitting

This stretch of trail is shared by the whole city, and it runs right beside Meadow Creek, which feeds the Rivanna. Every bag we fill here is trash that won’t wash downstream.

All equipment provided. Wear closed-toe shoes and long pants, dress in layers, and bring water. Waterproof boots help for the creek banks.
