Santa Clara River Preserve Volunterer Day
Sunday, January 18, 2026
9:00am – 12:00pm
The Santa Clara River Preserve spans almost two miles of this amazing waterway and encompasses nearly 1,000 acres of upland habitat and riverbed.
There are few locations on the Santa Clara River that are accessible to the public. Now with the opening of this preserve, TNC has provided a beautiful space for outdoor education, community gatherings, wildlife viewing, and hiking. On the preserve, we want to give everyone a chance to connect with the dynamic Santa Clara River.
Channel Island Restoration is helping to take care of the Preserve with TNC. Come volunteer with us to be part of the solution!
All ages and skill sets are welcome, and the site is ADA friendly. Restrooms are available on site.
