Hampton Road Spartans | River Clean Up with Elizabeth River Project
Hosted by Hampton Roads Spartans.
Project Description
Giving back to the place we call home!
Join your fellow Spartans at Harbor Park for a river cleanup with the Elizabeth River Project.
Removing trash from the shoreline protects the river’s water quality, prevents plastics and debris from harming fish and birds, and creates a safer habitat for the wildlife that depends on this ecosystem.
All cleanup supplies are provided.
Volunteers should be 16 years of age, or accompanied by an adult.
Let’s protect our local waterways together!

About Elizabeth River Project
The Elizabeth River Project is a growing non-profit organization leading the effort to restore the health of our historic urban river, while affirming her value to our region’s maritime economy.
Formed by four concerned residents over a kitchen table in 1991, our organization is a collection of community members, businesses, governments, students, educators and public servants working together to ‘Do Something Beautiful’ by restoring our home river.
To that end, we rely on the power of partnership – rather than lawsuits and finger-pointing – to accomplish our restoration goals. That philosophy has become an international model for collective action, and led the Stanford Social Review to cite the Elizabeth River Project as one of the country’s best examples of convincing disparate interests to work together on a community project.
