Tennessee River Rescue

Be a River Hero and volunteer for the Tennessee River Rescue!

Join hundreds of dedicated volunteers on October 4th for the annual Tennessee River Rescue! For over 30 years, this vital event has brought our community together to protect the beautiful Tennessee River and its tributaries.

You'll be part of a massive state-wide effort, working alongside fellow nature lovers to clean up shorelines, remove tons of trash, and collect recyclables. Imagine the immediate impact you'll make, seeing firsthand how your efforts create a healthier home for the animals that call our state home.

Litter cleanups like this seem simple on the surface, but the impact goes far beyond what we can see. On top of removing the garbage, you'll be safeguarding our source of drinking water and raising awareness about pollution. If you're ready to make a tangible difference, enjoy the outdoors, and connect with like-minded individuals, we need you!

Volunteers must be able to navigate river/creek banks to retrieve litter. We'll announce the specific cleanup location soon, we will target an area that needs some love and TLC.

Ready to get your hands dirty for a cleaner river? Sign up details and specific site locations will be announced shortly! Keep an eye here for updates!
