19th Annual Lake Travis Underwater Cleanup
November 10 @ 1:46 am
The Lake Travis Underwater Cleanup is the BIGGEST scuba diving and shoreline cleanup in Texas, hosted by Keep Austin Beautiful, Colorado River Alliance, and Travis County Parks. The event invites several hundred certified scuba divers and shoreline volunteers to help round-up trash from the bottom of Lake Travis and ten Travis County Parks around the lake. The cleanup is followed by a volunteer thank-you party. The event is great for all ages and will occur rain or shine!
