This year’s Tennessee River Rescue event has been cancelled due to ongoing concerns for our loyal volunteers and risks of coronavirus exposure.

While everyone will be disappointed, this is the proper course of action. Instead of a large, in-person event, we hope you’ll use your voice on social channels to encourage everyone to eliminate single-use plastics at home and continue recycling. And, while you are enjoying the region’s outdoor recreational areas, take a small trash bag with you to leave the trail in better shape than you found it.

Please share any images (and stories) of your cleanup efforts here on our website on on the Tennessee River Rescue Facebook page.

We look forward to seeing you the first weekend in October 2021 for the 31st Tennessee River Rescue event!
