Did you know that 18 million people live in the Chesapeake Bay watershed? Are you one of those 18 million?

Clean the Bay Day is an annual event aimed at cleaning up the water and land used by millions of people each day in the Chesapeake Bay watershed. We've collected hundreds of pounds of trash over the years and will be doing so again this year.

Join us for a shoreline clean-up on Watch House Trail. Visitors enjoy this site for its fishing and beautiful views, but sometimes trash gets left behind. The clean-up will begin at 9:00 a.m. and volunteers should meet at the Camp Store. Trash bags and gloves will also be available at the Camp Store and Visitor Center 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. if you'd like to strike out on your own cleaning adventure.

Closed toed shoes, pants, work gloves and bug spray are recommended, trash bags are provided. Remember to bring your reusable water bottle.
