Earth day is an event that the Anacostia Watershed Society has hosted annually since the founding in 1989. AWS hosts the event with the Seafarers Yacht Club. We have approximately 30 clean up locations throught the watershed. Each year the event takes place on the Saturday closest to Earth Day and every year alternates between using our DC and Maryland cleanup sites. On the day of the event thousands of volunteers come out to clean up all morning, and the day ends with an afternoon celebration including BBQ, speakers, and live music!
