Clean the Bay Day is sponsored by the Chesapeake Bay Foundation and is an ongoing effort towards creating a clean and healthy Chesapeake Bay. Here at Mason Neck, Kane's Creek and Belmont Bay connect to the Potomac River, a major river that flows into the Chesapeake Bay.
Join the community in the park’s largest annual clean-up efforts to pick up the trash and debris that have made their way to our shoreline!
The most discarded items are plastic bottles (450 to 1000 years to decompose) and plastic bags (20 to 1000 years to decompose).
Shoreline clean-up begin at 10:00 AM with check-in at the Visitor Center. Please wear comfortable clothes and closed toed shoes. You will likely get a little wet and rain boots are encouraged.
Volunteer leadership opportunities as Zone Captains are available through the Chesapeake Bay Foundation website.
