It's that time again for the annual community clean up of the back roads around Ucluelet and Tofino.
As tradition holds, we'll be meeting at the junction at 11am to organize ourselves and wrapping up at the landfill at 3pm.

If you have a vehicle you don't mind getting a bit dirty, bring it along or jump in with someone else at the junction. Glove supplies are limited so please bring your own if you have them. Garbage bags will be provided. The nature of our west coast weather can not be determined at this given time so dress appropriately for the weather and we clean rain or shine!

Prizes will be awarded once again for exceptional individuals and unusual or particularly disgusting items dealt with.

We look forward to seeing you all this year!
Thanks to this amazing community for your care and concern for our local watersheds.

We remind everyone that this is a respectful event and to be mindful and considerate during the clean up.

Celebrating life on the West Coast, Boat to Tailgate is a fundraising event for Redd Fish Restoration Society, and associated non-profit salmon restoration efforts in Clayoquot Sound.

For two weeks leading up to the event local sport and recreation fisherman catch a bounty of seafood from dungeness crab to fresh tuna and more. Local chefs from Tofino led by Madi Grayson and Kei Lowes of Toki Doki and Jason Sussman of Tacofino join forces to create a delicious seafood buffet. All proceeds from the event support wild Pacific salmon recovery efforts in Clayoquot Sound. Come enjoy live music, drinks from the Tofino Distillery and Merridale Cidery, and seafood buffet!
