You can click on the Register Links in between the Tables below.  Please note the "Under-Served" sites, these sites usually have less volunteers and more garbage and need your help!

*New this year* In an effort to better coordinate our volunteers we will be capping the number of volunteers allowed to register for each site, if the site is at volunteer capacity the registration status will be "closed."

River and Slough Sites:  Inland sites along our rivers and sloughs pose
unique challenges. Participants need to be more aware of habitat
sensitivity, along with the threat of poison oak, and other more
hazardous materials associated with homeless and transient
populations.  Youth should be accompanied by an adult for all inland
sites and these sites are not recommended for children under the age of
6.  If you have questions or concerns about our inland sites please
feel free to contact Aleah at (831) 462-5660 ext. 2.
