Volunteers may choose from one of five starting locations:

  • Old Chain of Rocks Bridge, 10950 Riverview Drive, St. Louis, MO  63137

Volunteering is also a great way for scouts to earn badges and students to earn community service hours. Please dress appropriately for working outside and current weather conditions. Be prepared to get wet and muddy.

At the fifth annual event in March, 2013, about 500 volunteers collected nearly 13 tons of trash, 3 tons of metal for recycling, and 3,000 tires!
