Thalia Creek Launch Cleanup
LRNow hosts cleanups along our Virginia Beach waterways to remove marine debris, improve water quality, and keep our city’s waters healthy and safe. Cleanups may be land-based and/or water-based depending on the location chosen for any given month. Please review all details carefully so you know what to expect when you arrive.
The August cleanup will be at Thalia Creek. Due to dredging equipment the launch will not be accessible, but we will meet and launch from Princess Anne HS. Details and maps will be provided via email before the event. We will be on land and in the water.
Please register if you plan to participate in a cleanup so you do not miss important information. Coordinators email details about meetup locations, dress, safety concerns and weather updates to registered participants by email. If dangerous weather cancels or postpones a cleanup, registered participants will receive an email by 8 am the day of the cleanup.
Appropriate dress and shoe wear are required. Cleanups usually occur in brushy, thorny, and muddy terrain which require full body protection. Closed-toed, sturdy shoes that can get wet and dirty should be worn for land-based cleanups. Water shoes are appropriate in kayaks only. Bare feet are never permitted. Hats, sunscreen, insect repellent and a reusable water bottle are recommended.
