Started in 2021 by Colorado River Alliance and Travis County Parks, the Spring Cleanup brings together local organizations and volunteers to clean up parks and waterways east of downtown Austin.
This community cleanup will take place across beautiful Travis County Parks in East Austin, Pflugerville, Manor, Del Valle, and Webberville. We need people of all ages to help remove trash from downstream parks and creeks—areas that have a significant impact on the Texas Colorado River Basin.
Bookmark our registration page. Registration opens Monday, March 2, 2026.

Colorado River Alliance Legacy Leaders
Your generosity and support are essential to the mission of Colorado River Alliance. Thank you for championing the long-term vitality of the Texas Colorado River.
“A healthy, flowing Texas Colorado River is imperative to the well-being of millions of people throughout the river basin. Big volunteer days like the Lake Travis Cleanup are a great way to remind folks that Lake Travis is part of the river system – we are all connected via the River. I’m so excited to see toddlers and teenagers out here today because I’m hopeful they will grow-up with an appreciation for our Lakes and Rivers and a desire to be a river steward and protector.”
Adrienne Longenecker, Executive Director of Colorado River Alliance
In Memoriam:
Sr. Deputy Jessica L. Hollis
Jessica was swept away while checking a low water crossing in her patrol car on September 18, 2014. She loved the Lake Travis Cleanup and 2014 was her second year participating. We will miss her very much. Jessica is pictured above with Travis County Sherrif’s Office Lake Patrol Dive Captain Jose Escribano.
Finley through the years!
