SUMMARY:Clean Lady Bird Lake
DESCRIPTION:Hello volunteers! Help Keep Austin Beautiful celebrate Valentine’s Day and give some extra LOVE to our wonderful Lady Bird Lake. On Saturday\, February 15th\, join our team in wearing your favorite (litter collecting-friendly) Valentine’s attire. Since 2009\, Keep Austin Beautiful has organized large-scale cleanups of Lady Bird Lake every other month. We train volunteer leaders to conduct cleanups at multiple locations along the shoreline and on the water. We are looking forward to everyone joining us for cooler weather and participating in our Clean Lady Bird Lake program. \nSign up for a volunteer time slot and location here. \n“Know Before You Go” \nBefore you head out\, please keep the following in mind: \n\nBe aware that toxic algae blooms can occur in Lady Bird Lake. Whenever you’re around natural bodies of water\, remain vigilant.\nRecognize that zebra mussels are invasive and widespread in Texas waterways. Let us know if you see any zebra mussels during your volunteer activity.\nBe able to identify poison ivy\, oak\, and sumac; identifying these plants is essential for a safe cleanup.\nHydrate and take precautions to prevent heat-related illnesses. Consult this guide for tips on recognizing and addressing heat-related issues.\nFor directions on where you are going for your cleanup – look at the Clean Lady Bird Lake Maps available!
