The annual community cleanup day is Sept. 20 from 9am-noon.

Volunteers will fan out across the South Shore to clean up litter and debris from local beaches, rivers, and meadows. The event is part of a larger effort, the Great Sierra River Cleanup, where volunteers clean waterways in the Sierra Nevada from Mt. Whitney to Lassen National Park.

Volunteers can choose from 11 cleanup sites, or if you have a group of volunteers interested in a particular site, that can be arranged. All ages are welcome.

Last year, volunteers on the South Shore picked up more than 1,200 pounds.
