Cape Fear River Watch is partnering with Keep New Hanover Beautiful for our Second Saturday Cleanup on March 14th! The cleanup will take place in the Burnt Mill Creek watershed. We will be focusing our efforts on McCumbers Branch near Rankin St. The cleanup will take place from 9-11 a.m. at 1301 Rankin St. Parking will be available in the large grass lot. Follow our cleanup signs!
Waders and/or waterproof boots will be ideal here, so if you have those please bring them! We will provide pickers, bags, gloves and safety vests. As always, remember to dress appropriately for the weather, apply bug spray, and bring plenty water.
We hope to see you out there!

New Year, same cleanups!
For our first Second Saturday Cleanup of the year, we will focus our efforts on two locations within the Burnt Mill Creek watershed. The first will be the drainage easement that runs behind Crossroads Center and Wilmington Brewing. The second location will be the southern continuation of that easement that runs behind Jackson BBQ. We will all meet at a central staging location, which will be located in the parking lot of Crossroads Center. 894-1 S Kerr Ave, Wilmington, NC 28403 should get you to the right spot.
CFRW will provide gloves, pickers, safety vests, bags, data sheets, and pens. If you have waterproof knee boots or waders, please bring them; we will need some people to walk through the center of the ditch, which typically has standing water. Please remember to dress warmly!
We look forward to seeing you all there and starting off 2026 strong!
