As ambassadors of the Cowichan River we do our best at The Tube Shack to keep the river clean, safe and sustainable, for everyone to enjoy responsibly. Some of the ways we contribute include:
- Providing free river safe sunscreen to all of our customers
- Daily river cleanups
- Daily garbage and recycling collection at Little Beach throughout summer
- All cans/bottles collected from Little Beach are donated to charity or locals in need
Want to help make a difference?
We are currently seeking volunteers to help with the River Cleanup on September 11th 2022. Help is needed from local divers, boaters as well as garbage and recycling sorters.
Volunteers will be entered to win one of many door prizes.
We are proud to be teaming up with the Cowichan Lake & River Stewardship Society and The Tube Shack to help facilitate the 2021 Annual Cowichan River Clean-up.
In 2020 with Covid sweeping into the area, The Tube Shack led the river clean up and we are now happy to announce we have partnered with the CLRSS going forward.
The CLRSS are a group of folks from the shores of Lake Cowichan and the Cowichan River, who have come together to show their respect for our shared watershed, this great Canadian Heritage River and the lake at its source. For the past 11 years they’ve helped haul tonnes of old appliances, tires, metal bits, bottles, cans, punctured tubes and lots of litter out of the river.
Want to help make a difference?
We are currently seeking volunteers to help with the River Clean-up on September 12th 2021. There are a variety of areas where help is needed including shoreline cleanup, swimmers, boaters, recycling sorters and more.
Volunteers will be entered to win one of many door prizes generously donated by local Cowichan businesses.
