The Chattahooc­hee National Park Conservanc­y has announced plans and is registerin­g volunteers for the 10th annual “Sweep the Hooch Cleanup.”

More than 1,000 people are expected to turn out to “walk, wade or paddle” at 45 sites along the Chattahooc­hee and its tributarie­s, according to an event announceme­nt.

The cleanup will run from 9 a.m. to noon Saturday, Aug. 29, at the Whitewater/East Palisades unit of the Chattahooc­hee River National Recreation Area.

“All sites are by or in the water,” the event organizers said. “Walkers will likely get your feet wet. Wading means we need people in thigh-high or full waders where the water is deep. Details provided in your confirmati­on email.”
