AUSTIN (KXAN) -- Rowing docks on Lady Bird Lake in Austin are partnering up for the third year in a row to host a community-wide lake cleanup effort to kick off Earth Day weekend.
The Rowing Dock is partnering with Epic SUP to host the volunteer-driven cleanup day. Volunteers will head to the Rowing Dock on the west side of the lake, Epic SUP on the east end, or the trail at Festival Beach to participate in cleanup efforts.
Registration to volunteer closed Thursday evening. The volunteer times are 9 a.m. and noon.
The Rowing Dock is providing water, food, clean up supplies, and participation goody bags to volunteers.
Last year, 2,300 volunteers showed up to the two rowing docks and Sand Beach Park. The event is also a fundraiser for The Trail Conservancy.
