Volunteers are asked to wear closed-toed shoes, bring gloves, sunglasses, and a refillable water bottle (gloves will be provided if needed). Volunteers are invited to a post-cleanup picnic supper in Griffin Park with food generously donated by area restaurants. You can pre-register for the cleanup or register on July 10 at 4:30 in Griffin Park. Volunteers must complete a liability waiver before participating. All ages are invited, children under 18 must have adult supervision. Boats, pontoons, trucks, and trailers are needed to make the cleanup successful. If you can provide equipment, please contact Paul Lepisto at 605-220-1219 or email plepisto@iwla.org. The Pierre-Fort Pierre Missouri River Cleanup is coordinated by the Izaak Walton League, SD Game, Fish, and Parks, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Army Corps of Engineers, and the cities of Pierre and Fort Pierre. Many area businesses and organizations also contribute to this effort. This will be the 14th Pierre-Fort Pierre Missouri River Cleanup.
