Foster Falls Lower Boat Launch Clean Up

In the aftermath of Helene, New River Trail State Park is working diligently with emergency response crews and volunteers on relief efforts.

Volunteers will be provided with necessary equipment, but it’s advised to bring personal items such as water bottles, snacks, and layers of clothing for various weather conditions. Volunteers must wear close-toed shoes. Be prepared to protect your personal safety while cleaning up debris after a disaster. Restrooms may not be available at this location. (10-15 volunteers needed) 

Please note that personal power equipment such as chainsaws cannot be used on park property by the general public, and trained sawyer crews are addressing this specific need for debris removal.

Unless you’re officially selected to participate in volunteer efforts, please do not show up at the park unless you’ve been communicated to do so. The willingness to help is commendable, however this requires a coordinated effort to maintain safety and ensure appropriate resources are deployed. Thank you for your support!

This is an interest and availability form.
