About
Twas' the night before December 6th and all along the shore no critters were stirring - just litter galore! The volunteers were getting ready to pick up litter with joy and help keep the lake a place everyone can enjoy!
Thank you for joining Keep Austin Beautiful give some extra love to our beloved Lady Bird Lake! On Saturday, December 6th, join our team in wearing your best (litter collecting-friendly) holiday season attire to help clean Lady Bird Lake! Since 2009, Keep Austin Beautiful has organized large-scale cleanups of Lady Bird Lake every other month. We train volunteer leaders to conduct cleanups at multiple locations along the shoreline and on the water. We are looking forward to everyone participating in our Clean Lady Bird Lake program!

“Know Before You Go”
Before you head out, please keep the following in mind:
- Per Texas State Law, life jackets are required for everyone on a watercraft. For all children 13 and under the life jacket must be worn at all times. For more information on boater safety, please look to TPWD.
- Be aware that toxic algae blooms can occur in Lady Bird Lake. Whenever you're around natural bodies of water, remain vigilant.
- Recognize that zebra mussels are invasive and widespread in Texas waterways. Let us know if you see any zebra mussels during your volunteer activity.
- Be able to identify poison ivy, oak, and sumac; identifying these plants is essential for a safe cleanup.
- Hydrate and take precautions to prevent heat-related illnesses. Consult this guide for tips on recognizing and addressing heat-related issues.
- For directions on where you are going for your cleanup - look at the Clean Lady Bird Lake Maps available!
