What the cleanup will look like: We are focusing along the shoreline of the Brazos River, being able to walk, hold a litter grabber/trash bag and bending over may be required. If we are able to safely launch kayaks we will have kayaks available, with a limited amount of kayaks and stand up paddle boards. ALL volunteers are required to wear safety vests at all times if they are on a watercraft.
