Clean Up at Theodore Roosevelt Island on Sunday, J...
Christopher Dopita

Happy New Year PBC,


Once again in 2025 PBC is co-sponsoring it’s annual clean up with Georgetown University Crew, working with the Potomac Conservancy, at Theodore Roosevelt Island on January 19, 2025 for three hours (10am-1pm). 


Volunteers play an essential role in Potomac Conservancy’s work. As in the past, the slots for this clean up have been blocked for the rowing community. Space is basically unlimited, come one come all. Unlike previous years, there is no need to sign up in advance, please just show up. We will fill out large group attendee forms beforehand for PBC attendees and their guests but you will be required to complete a waiver upon arrival onsite which can be completed digitally. Underage attendees will have one further form to complete. I’m happy to pass anyone bringing minors forms in advance so, please reach out if that is the case and you want to get a jump before attending.


If you have any questions or concerns, please email Jim Freis (James.Freis@hotmail.com) or Chris Dopita (cdopita@icloud.com)

Good morning, Jim and Chris,


With the upcoming weather, do we know if this clean up is still "on" or how will we know if it gets canceled?


Thanks!

The clean up has unfortunately been canceled. Please stay tuned for a rescheduled date or please attend the next official cleanup on Earth Day. Thanks!
