What to Expect

Date: April 13, 2019

Be a Hero of the Anacostia River! AWS volunteers are stepping up and doing what it takes to clean the Anacostia River. Be prepared to get dirty and have fun.

When you arrive look for signs to check in at the registration table. You will meet the folks organizing your site, and get your t shirt.

Site leaders will brief you on basic safety measures to ensure that everyone has a safe, fun time. All tools and supplies needed will be provided - no need to bring your own gloves unless you have a favorite pair.

This is a family friendly event and kids are welcome! However, all participants under 18 must have a waiver signed by an adult and participants under 15 must be accompanied by an adult.

Group Registrations

1. Groups are limited to 25 people for online registrations.  If your group is larger than 25, please contact Emily Castelli at ecastelli2@anacostiaws.org. Overall, for each site, the maximum group size is dependent on the total number of volunteers that site can handle.  
2. Please have the information ready when you go to register for all the members of your group. For each person in your group, you will need their name, email, address, emergency contact info (name and phone), and t-shirt size.
3. Use the plus or minus button to set your number of tickets.
4. Enter the information for each member of your group for each ticket.
5. If members of your group are Under 18:

4. Under 18:
   • Please bring your completed waiver (download here) with a signature from your parent or guardian.
