Waco’s only river cleanup competition

2026 EVENT SPONSORED BY

Team Building, But Fun.

For 3 consecutive years, Trash Dash & Bash takes teams out for a friendly competition while making an impact on our city.

The Rivalry on the Brazos is a one-day event engaging teams for a little friendly competition. Participants make our city beautiful just by showing up, while enjoying a day of creating impact in our city. Teams compete for the most waste pulled from the river, best team name, most gators caught, and of course whoever does the best trash talk. Each teams registration sponsorship is donating to Keep Waco Beautiful to further our mission of a more vibrant Waco, Texas.

2026 event has ended, stay tuned for 2027 dates!
