ReNew the New – North Carolina

For the first time ever, New River Conservancy and ReNew the New will host simultaneous cleanups on the New River in all three states of the watershed – North Carolina, Virginia and West Virginia for “Fall into the New” on September 14, 2024.

ReNew the New sponsors two annual river clean-ups. In the spring is “Ramps ‘n’ Roads” and in the fall, “Fall into the New”.  Anyone interested in protecting and renewing the beautiful New River is welcome to join in.

In North Carolina, New River Conservancy will be hosting three clean ups that day:

South Fork of the New – Zaloos Canoes to Wagoner Access – 5 miles of the South Fork of the New River

Mountain Alliance will have its own fleet of boats and handle a section on the South Fork of the New River called Wagoner to Gentry Access.

South Fork of the New – Wagoner to Gentry Road Bridge – 5.5 miles of the South Fork of the New River

GE Aerospace will combine NRC boats with local individuals to do the Sheets Bridge to Wagoner Access section! They are looking for more boats and hoping to have a huge crowd!

Middle Fork of the New – Boone Greenway –

Recreation Management Association at App State will do a walking river clean up on the Middle Fork of the New River called the Boone Greenway.

For information on any of these clean ups, please contact Stella Cybulski at Stella@newriverconservancy.org
