Sound Rivers is proud to team up with Orvis Raleigh and Neuse River Outfitters for this epic river clean-up and afterparty on Aug. 3.

Check in is at 9:30 a.m. at the large picnic shelter at Anderson Point Park where participants will be shuttled to the Milburnie launch site. If you’re on the water, rafts with water and beverages will be staged along the paddle. Our endpoint will be back at Anderson Point Park, where your car will be waiting for you! 

After the clean-up, stick around and celebrate at the afterparty at Anderson Point! Enjoy music, beer, lawn games and a raffle with Loose on the Neuse prizes and swag!

It's lining up to be a great event! Come on out and join Orvis Raleigh, Neuse River Outfitters and Sound Rivers staff and board members for a great cause and a great time!
