Annual Yuba River Cleanup

The South Yuba River Citizens League (SYRCL) held its 26th annual Yuba River Cleanup event on Saturday, September 23, 2023, from 9am to noon. SYRCL would like to thank the over 680 volunteers who donated over 2,000 hours to help remove trash from the Yuba watershed. SYRCL would especially like to thank the 27 individuals who took on the extra responsibility of being a site leader at the many different sites throughout the watershed.

Preliminary data from the Cleanup is being compiled, but early indications are that approximately 10,000 pounds of trash and recycling was pulled out of the watershed this year, about the weight of a standard RV.

For 26 years, the Yuba River Cleanup has been an opportunity for individuals to give back to the community they love.  
It has also been an opportunity for area businesses, nonprofits, and other groups to unite with the community they serve in restoring and protecting our watershed.
