TIRE TUG-OF-WAR 2026
TIRE TUG-OF-WAR 2026
We will be working a waste-tire recovery project with WV DEP’s REAP program and Coalfield Development on Tuesday, August 25, and Thursday, August 27. Volunteers are needed to help with the project. Work will start at 9:00 but you are welcome to come and go as needed. The exact staging areas will be announced later.
Expect to get wet & dirty, and put in a hard day’s work. Waders are NOT recommended.
A grant from South Williamson Walmart will provide lunch for all involved.
These projects are very weather and river dependent! Postponement is not unusual. Check our website and/or facebook page for critical updates.
We've removed over 19,000 tires from the Tug Fork River in 7+ years! But we've still got a lot of work to do! Learn more about the Tire Tug of War and find out how you can join us in our restoration efforts!
