Gorst Cleanup Round III

  • Gorst, WA United States (map)

We have already pulled over 4500 lbs of trash out of this abandoned encampment and look to finish the job on 8/2 if we can get enough hands together to make it happen.

Our volunteer team will be bagging trash and removing it to the dump. Big thanks to Kitsap Public Health who will be providing vouchers to help cover the expense.

We’ll share all the details about the precise location after you’ve registered. The area we’ll be working in does include some fairly steep and brushy terrain.

Thank you!

If you aren’t able to join us, please consider donating to help feed our volunteers lunch when we don’t get lunch donated by fantastic local establishments :) Any excess donations will be used to feed volunteers at future events.
