Ruth lake is a beautiful resource for both Humboldt and Trinity County residents, but years of visitor use have left a ring of litter lining it’s shores. Let’s clean it up and take pride in our beautiful lake. This year marks the 30th annual NPLD. Celebrating 30 years of care and community, NPLD has joined people across the nation in the care and celebration of our public lands.
As a signature event of the National Environmental Education Foundation (NEEF), NPLD fosters a strong connection between people and the environment, educating and cultivating environmental stewards. It’s also a “Fee-Free Day” where entrance fees are waived at national parks and public lands. With support from federal and state agencies, corporate sponsors, and nonprofits, NPLD ensures resilient natural spaces for generations to come, encouraging volunteering and environmental engagement.
The Ruth Lake Cleanup is organized in partnership with Six Rivers National Forest, Humboldt Bay Municipal Water District, Ruth Lake Community Services, and Van Duzen Elementary School. Event website: www.facebook.com/events/1002517750933767
