Join us for the annual Ship Creek Cleanup! Help preserve the cleanliness and beauty of Ship Creek, and get the banks ready for the 2024 salmon season.

Matson is joining forces with us once again and promoting their Caring for Alaska program that partners with nonprofits to care for the environment.

Join volunteers from the Ship Creek fishing community, Team Bait Shack and Matson.

Please meet at the Shack at 212 West Whitney Road at 11:00 a.m.

What to bring:

Please dress in layers and dress warm – the temperature is often cooler along the creek

Bring rubber boots or waders.

Wear gloves, such as latex or nitrile gloves

Wear an orange safety vest if cleaning roadways or intersections near the creek.

After the cleanup, volunteers are invited to gather for giveaways.

The Ship Creek Cleanup event is organized in conjunction with the Anchorage Chamber of Commerce Citywide Cleanup presented by Matson and is part of The Bait Shack Community Events, a series of community fishing events in Anchorage.

This will be the first of two Ship Creek Cleanup events for the 2024 fishing season; a second cleanup event will be held after the fishing season wraps up in the fall.

Thank you!

Tight lines and Fish On!
