NPLD 2026 | Protect Our Rivers

JOIN US FOR NATIONAL
PUBLIC LANDS DAY

Protect Our Rivers is teaming up with the BLM for the 5th year in a row to host a river cleanup and celebration on the Upper Colorado River! And this year, we’re adding even more fun to commemorate Colorado’s 150th anniversary, including a movie night and live music from A Brothers Fountain.

To join us, please register through our website and review the additional event details below.

We’re excited to make this our biggest celebration yet — honoring both our rivers and the public lands that surround them.

FRIDAY: WELCOME PARTY

& MOVIE NIGHT

Camping is free Friday through Sunday at Group Sites A & B. Feel free to roll in anytime after 1 p.m. and settle in — the afternoon is yours to relax and enjoy.

At 8:00 pm we will meet at the Pumphouse Gazebo for a mini movie night and the showing of three awesome short feature films. You’re welcome to join us or spend the evening however you’d like!

SATURDAY: RIVER CLEANUP CELEBRATION & LIVE MUSIC

Saturday is the main event, and for the first time ever we’re bringing live music to National Public Lands Day with A Brothers Fountain!

We’ll kick off the day with a river cleanup, followed by a celebration at Pumphouse. Enjoy beer from Odell Brewing Co., dinner, prizes, and live music as we celebrate a day of giving back to our public lands and rivers.

EVENT REGISTRATION

Please click the link below to register for the event. Like last year we will have four river cleanup sites you can join to maximize our impact. All of the cleanups will start and end around the same time so everyone can join the after party at Pumphouse on Saturday evening.

We can't wait see you there!
