Roger Williams Park Clean Ups with Save the Bay

Monthly Community Clean Ups with Save the Bay, second Friday of every month.

Friday, June 9th 9:00 AM – 11:00 AM

THIS CLEAN UP IS FULL

Advance registration required, click here.

Get involved and help keep Roger Williams Park clean! Trash in our parks, ponds and rivers is ugly and dangerous to wildlife. Cleanups are a great way for volunteers to make a difference! This cleanup is hosted by Save The Bayย in partnership withย Roger Williams Park Conservancyย  and the Providence Parks Department.

You will be picking up trash and debris to improve the habitat and the appearance of the lakes and ponds, and it is a great way to meet people. This is a rain or shine event so please dress for the weather, and for mud; boots would be useful! More information online when you sign up.

MEETING LOCATION HAS CHANGED from the original posting! We will now meet near the Park Avenue entrance to Roger Williams Park, near the waterfall/dam.ย ย See MAP for exact location (you can navigate there with that link), and watch a quick video showing you the location.

#GivingTuesday2025 is just around the corner, and we get it โ€“ there are so many wonderful local nonprofits seeking support this time of year!

Why include Roger Williams Park Conservancy in your giving plan? 

Behind the more than 50 free and low-cost programs hosted every year, the restoration of beloved historic structures still playing a role in the community today, and the expansive green spaces and waterways sustaining humans and wildlife alike, there are crucial partnerships and much hard work that goes into stewarding Roger Williams Park.

As Board Member Chris Lanen shares โ€“ and so many families can relate to! โ€“ "the Park provides [a] retreat into nature. Individually, it gives me a place to exercise and decompress. As a parent, it gives my child a magical place to play, explore, and learn throughout the year.โ€

Find the link to donate in our bio, with options for one-time or recurring gifts!
To all those celebrating, happy Thanksgiving from RWPC! Donโ€™t forget: our trails and paths are always available for a rejuvenating post-feast walk! ๐Ÿ‚

We would love to hear what youโ€™re thankful for about Roger Williams Park โ€“ is it a favorite piece of architecture or a serene place to retreat into nature? A favorite event or family outing thatโ€™s become a tradition? Let us know!
