This 2022 video produced by Andie Waugh highlights our teamwork and accomplishments over our five years as an organization!

Who we are...

A Clean Wilson Creek is a growing team of local and regional partners committed to protecting this National Wild and Scenic River in it's natural state for future generations.

Wilson Creek begins as a small stream on the side of Grandfather Mountain and forms into an incredible national treasure over the next twenty-three miles. We conduct River Patrol clean-up events to remove trash left by recreational users, and also address abuse of this wilderness area from vandalism.

A strong, service-oriented conservation education component provides outreach to user groups and opportunities for volunteerism. 

We have a core team, regularly active trained volunteers, and a number of associates and consultants who help us with this stream protection, conservation education, and community, state and local government outreach. We also have corporate/small business funding partners and hopefully, we will have YOU on our side as well.

Get Involved - Volunteer

If you are passionate about protecting our remaining wilderness and watersheds, we can use your help! We welcome individual volunteers and groups, Scouting troops, and conservation/science/natural history educators for programming. We use volunteers for River Patrol, Trail Maintenance, and presenters for outreach programs. All volunteers are educated on our purpose and River Patrol protocols, safety, and appropriate interpersonal interactions with River visitors.  Want to Volunteer? Click Here to complete a form and we will be in touch!

Your Participation is Crucial and Appreciated!

Whether you help through monetary donations, volunteering your time, or spreading our story through word-of-mouth or social media, know that you are appreciated. This operation is costly and we can't take a day off given the current situation.  Your support helps us work toward solutions while continuing the daily River Patrols UNTIL we achieve successful solutions!
