Join the Cumberland River Compact in Goodlettsville for a cleanup of Mansker Creek at North Creek Park! Mansker Creek is a haven for fish, salamanders, birds, and other wildlife, and is a direct tributary of the Cumberland River. It flows alongside many neighborhoods and shopping centers before reaching North Creek Park, collecting litter along the way. At this cleanup, you’ll team up with other volunteers to care for this important waterway.

Your impact compounds! Since 2019, the Compact has removed over 8,900 pounds of trash from Mansker Creek with the help of incredible volunteers. Our stream restoration team has also led a multi-year restoration of a badly eroded segment of Mansker Creek near Moss-Wright Park. Your participation in this cleanup is part of a larger effort to preserve the health of the creek for future generations.

I hereby hold harmless and indemnify the Releasees from any and all liability, claims, actions or damages without any limitation whatsoever (including attorneys’ fees), whether consisting of loss, property damage, death or personal injury to me, my next of kin or any third party, resulting from my participation in this event.

I and my next of kin are duly aware of the risks and hazards inherent in this outdoor activity. I hereby voluntarily assume all risks of loss, illness, disease, damage, or injury that may be sustained by me or to any property while in or upon said premises or engaged in said event.

I recognize and agree that I am not allowed to participate in any of the above listed activities unless I sign this Waiver, and therefore I am receiving a benefit in exchange for signing this Waiver and it is binding on me.

I have read and understand this waiver and hereby agree to participate in this event.
