You can register between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 9 a.m., the cleanup itself will run from 8 a.m. until noon. It is not recommended that children under the age of ten participate in this event.
You are going to be picking up litter throughout the shoreline of San Mateo Creek, so it is important to dress for the event. We suggest wearing older clothes with sturdy but comfortable shoes.
If you are planning to take part in the Tidelands Mud Crawl, you may want to wear water resistant boots. You should not wear flip flops, open-toed shoes or anything you mind getting dirty.
All volunteers of the Bayfront Cleanup are treated to hotdogs, hamburgers and refreshments, as well as live music. There are even prizes for the “Catch of The Day” winners, in which volunteers share the most unusual litter they found while cleaning.
