Upon Arrival: Please plan to register with the State Park before meeting up with other TAPS families and further deciding on the area that the TAPS families would like to cleanup together.

Attire: We encourage you to wear any TAPS attire you may have and/or a photo button of your loved one as this will allow you to more easily locate one another at the event.

Day Schedule: Stop by the visitor center between 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. to register and pick an area to cleanup. Limited supplies available. Come back to the visitor center by 2 p.m. to report your cleanup and drop off your bags of litter. The cleanup is self-serve and at your own pace.

Cost: This event is free and open to the public. TAPS families may not be the only participants.

Notes: While we are promoting this community event, it is not directly organized or hosted by TAPS. Therefore, TAPS will not have a host at the event. This is simply an opportunity for our survivors to meet up, connect and build community within their local areas.

Please reach out to tapstogethers@taps.org with any questions.

About TAPS Togethers

Community is important!  This is why we create a broad variety of opportunities to bring the TAPS family together.  TAPS Togethers are one-day, organized, social events across the country, led by TAPS Staff or a survivor like you, with the goal of expanding our peer support community. 

If there is not a TAPS Togethers event in your area, consider hosting one. You know your community best! Perhaps you know of a simple cost-effective way to bring TAPS families together for a day of hope and healing in your area. We would love to hear from you! Please submit your idea and we will connect with you to explore the possibilities.
