WHY rappel for the rivers?
By 'Rappelling for the Rivers' with Keep the Tennessee River Beautiful, you are directly helping to raise funds to educate and inspire people to take action to create a clean, healthy, beautiful Tennessee River for generations to come. When you reach your fundraising minimum, you will have the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to rappel 200 feet from The Park Vista, a Doubletree by Hilton Hotel in Gatlinburg, TN and help Keep the Tennessee River Beautiful go 'Over the Edge' to reach the milestone of 1 million pounds of trash removed from the Tennessee River watershed since 2019.
ABOUT Keep Tennessee River Beautiful:
Keep the Tennessee River Beautiful is a 501c3 nonprofit and is the first Keep America Beautiful affiliate in the nation to focus solely on a river. Its mission is to rally communities along the Tennessee River and its tributaries to preserve, improve and protect the river for generations to come. To date, over 5,000 volunteers have helped the organization to remove over 950,000 lbs. of trash along the 652-mile Tennessee River and its tributaries that reach into seven states. By 2025, the organization hopes to surpass the milestone of 1,000,000 lbs. of trash removed since putting their first boat in the water in 2019.
