Please lend a hand. The park has been a gracious host to us for many years and they count on us. Many of us will be at Rec School this weekend, so it is even more important for those not attending that event to help out on the Cossatot.


6/7/2014 - 6/7/2014
1980 Highway 278 West
Wickes, AR 71973


Join Cossatot’s staff on the beautiful, scenic Cossatot River for a day of picking up trash along the river, access points, and roads! Meet the park staff at park HQ at 10:00AM to pick up trash bags etc. and receive assignments.

If you are paddling that day, just be sure and pick up any trash that you see. You can also pick up trash at the access points before launching.

Lunch will be provided by Cossatot River Sate Park-Natural Area. Make sure to bring 3 quarts of water and sturdy hiking shoes. No flip-flops or sandals.

This time of year it is hard to not conflict with something. I believe that the park set their date first anyway. If anyone is to blame it is probably me for not realizing there was a conflict when the date for Rec School was set.

For what it's worth the cleanup typically ends with lunch. So it is probably possible to attend the clean up and make it to rockport in time for the hometown throw down.

That is true Steve. It would be pretty easy to do both of those.
