Columbia River Shoreline Cleanup Project

Before

After

The club’s newest project is expected to make a significant difference to the aesthetics and wildlife habitat of the Lower Columbia River shoreline from Sunningdale to the US border. Everything from car bodies to the kitchen sink will be removed piece by piece, if required. Some work has been undertaken but there is much more still to be done. There are costs associated with this project and, as with all club projects, funding will come from the club’s coffers and, hopefully, from regional grant administering organizations. We have however, received interest from members of the public to make donations to the project. We will gladly accept donations and they can be made by cheque or e- transfer. Information for both can be found at the bottom of this post.

Please be aware that the club is a not-for-profit society and not a charitable organization. As such we cannot issue tax receipts for donations.

The work is generally done during low water levels, so late winter and early spring. Look to this website for more information on the scope of the work and volunteering as we get closer to low water levels.
