Keep Knoxville Beautiful will be hosting our sixth annual Third Creek Clean Paddle on May 9 from 10am-12pm at UT Gardens! We will be removing litter and invasive species from the area around Third Creek, both on land and in the water.

 

We will also be partnering with Ijams Nature Center for an invasive species removal. 

 

We will have kayaks and paddleboards thanks to the Knoxville Adventure Collective!


Volunteers are welcome to bring their own kayaks. Life vests are required. 

 

Keep Knoxville Beautiful will provide the following equipment:

  • Litter pickers

  • Gloves

  • Trash bags

  • Safety vests

  • Waders (if water levels allow)

  • Nets

 

We highly recommend wearing long pants and all volunteers must wear closed-toed shoes for the event.  Please bring your own sunscreen, bug protection, and water.
