Lead organization: Web Of Life Society
To celebrate BC Rivers Day, join Volunteer Wave (@captainscottlegacy ) and @weboflife.ca for a community cleanup along the North Coquitlam River!
~
Together, we’ll help care for the river and surrounding trails while spending time outdoors and connecting with our community.
Volunteers can choose between:
Invasive species removal
Litter cleanup
Whether you’re new to volunteering or a regular, there’s a way to get involved.
~
Meet-up location:
Shaughnessy Street and Karley Crescent in Coquitlam
(A waiver will need to be signed by any new participants)
~
Please note: The cleanup site is approximately a 25-minute walk from the meet-up location, followed by another 25-minute walk back. We’ve extended the event to allow time for the trail walk, so please come prepared for some extra walking.
~
What to bring:
Boots are recommended, as trail conditions may be muddy.
Weather-appropriate clothing and long pants.
Avoid light-coloured clothing, as you may get dirty.
A reusable water bottle if you’d like. Water and light refreshments will be provided, but let’s keep it eco-friendly where we can!
Be prepared to spend time outdoors and walk on uneven or muddy trails.
All cleanup and invasive species removal supplies will be provided.

Parking
A few parking options are available:
• Street parking along Shaughnessy Street and Karley Crescent
• Overflow parking on David Place, if needed
Please note that parking may be limited.
We hope you’ll join us for a day of fresh air, community, and caring for our local environment.
See you there!
