Once a year thousands
of volunteers gather along the Texas waterways to do their part in cleaning
up the environment and participate in the largest statewide event to educate
the public about the importance of our water resources. Trash Bash occurs
rain or shine, unless there are severe weather conditions.
Time
Trash Bash is a half day event and begins between 8:00/8:30 am in
the morning and ends at 1:30 in the afternoon. Start time, registration
and end time vary from location to location. Please go to the individual
cleanup sites for details.

Registration
Each participant
must sign a registration form, also known
as the liability form, for the event. Registration is usually done at
the cleanup site the day of the event. For large groups we recommend you
complete the forms for each participant ahead of time and have them ready
to hand over to the site coordinator the day fo the event. This will save
you and the site coordinators time. Registration starts between 8:00 am
and 9:00 am. Times vary from cleanup location to cleanup location. Please
refer to the individual cleanup
sites for exact times.
Directions
Please see the individual cleanup site
for more information. Detailed directions, parking information, and important
instructions will be posted by each site closer to the event.
