This year's annual Spring Cleanup of Route 192 will be held on Saturday, April 18th from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM. In the event of rain, the clean-up will be rescheduled for Saturday, May 16th.

We will meet at the Environmental Learning Center at 9:00 AM and divide into groups. We will primarily focus on picking up trash along Route 192 between McCall Dam Road and Stover Gap Road. For volunteers with children who would like to participate, we invite you to help by searching for and picking up trash in the park's day-use area and around Halfway Lake. We are also looking for a volunteer or two to stack firewood at our firewood shed in the campground.

The Friends will provide gloves, trash bags, and safety vests. Please bring a water bottle and wear weather-appropriate clothing. As we’ll be working in grassy areas along the road’s edges, insect repellent is highly recommended, and checking for ticks afterward is advised!

Afterward, we will return to the Environmental Learning Center for a lunch provided by the Friends!

Those who plan on attending should register for the cleanup at www.friendsofrbwinter.org/cleanup
