River Ambassadors will provide Lower Clackamas River visitors and recreationists, while social distancing, with stewardship and safety information to better enjoy this beautiful river. Throughout the summer, trained River Ambassador volunteers will be stationed Saturdays and Sundays at popular river access sites in Barton, Carver, and Milo McIver State Park.
The goals of the River Ambassador program include improving visitor experiences, communicating river conditions and obstacles, reducing river congestion, encouraging river stewardship and safety, and connecting visitors to the abundance of services in the Clackamas River region.
Volunteers will welcome Clackamas River visitors by answering questions, serving as the friendly face of the recreation and local community. River Ambassador weekends throughout the summer will lead up directly to WLCR’s annual Down The River Clean-Up on September 13th, 2020.
Volunteer training will be available in virtual sessions as well as limited capacity, in-person training sessions. Keeping volunteers safe is our first priority - if you have questions about our COVID-19 safety precautions, feel free to contact the River Ambassador Volunteer Coordinator, Nicole Fredericks at nicole@welovecleanrivers.org.
We Love Clean Rivers is grateful for our strong partners in developing the Clackamas River Ambassadors.
The River Ambassadors are funded in part by Mt. Hood Territory, Travel Oregon, Hood Gorge Region, Clackamas County Parks, and Oregon State Parks.
