Event Details
The annual Sweep the Hooch is your chance to walk, wade, or paddle as we come together to clean up the river we all depend on.
Each year, hundreds of volunteers remove tons of trash from the Chattahoochee River and its tributaries as part of Sweep the Hooch. So many of us depend on this crucial resource for clean drinking water, beautiful recreational activities, and more. Please consider becoming a fundraiser or donating to support a trash-free Chattahoochee River.
Date: Sat, March 21, 2026
Time: 9 am – 12 noon
Location: Over 65 locations: Gainesville locations include Don Carter State Park and Linwood Nature Preserve – see website for all locations
Cost: Free
