C&O CANAL NATIONAL HISTORICAL PARK
Trash Free ParkThe C&O Canal National Historical Park is proudly instituting a new Trash Free Park program this spring. The concept is being initiated to actively reduce solid waste within the park. The premise is a partnership that will provide a safer, healthier, more satisfying experience for all of us who enjoy the park and its exceptional resources.Under the guidelines of the Trash Free Park program, all trash receptacles are removed from the park and visitors are required to take their refuse when they depart, leaving an unspoiled, trash free park! This initiative encompasses all recreational sections including the day use, picnic grounds, pavilions, boat ramps, hiker/biker and camping areas.
The C&O Canal will install Trash Free Park signs and provide park users with bags at the various access points throughout the park as a convenience for refuse removal. However, please plan ahead when you visit the park this season. As you prepare items to carry into the park, make accommodations to carry your garbage out when you leave. Make creative choices on what to bring, as trash receptacles will not be available anywhere in the park.
