Join Spokane Riverkeeper for a community paddleboard cleanup on the Spokane River! This event invites paddlers of all experience levels to help protect the health of our waterway while enjoying time on the river.

Participants will float along the Spokane River, picking up litter from the water and shoreline. Spokane Riverkeeper will provide trash bags, gloves, and litter pickers.

This is a great opportunity to enjoy a morning paddle with purpose, clean up our community, and meet others who care about river stewardship.

Spoken River 2025

Spoken River 2025

Spokane Convention Center (map)

The Spokane River has always been a storyteller. 

It s​peaks in current and quiet pools, in the laughter of children wading and the hust of herons lifting into dusk. It holds our histories, our hopes, and the chapters still unwritten. 

This fall, Spokane Riverkeeper invites you to gather for Spoken River, our annual celebration and fundraiser-- a night where art, music, food and community come together to honor the river and the works that protects it.

Let's celebrate. Let's commit.  Let's speak for the river.
