The Lake Travis Underwater Cleanup is the BIGGEST scuba diving and shoreline cleanup in Texas hosted by the LCRA, Colorado River Foundation, Travis County and KAB.

The bottom of Lake Travis and 9 Travis County Parks that surround the lake.

In 2007:

•  More than 400 shoreline volunteers cleaned 10 parks around Lake Travis!
•  600 divers cleaned underwater!
•  Over 600 POUNDS of metal was recycled!
•  3 TONS of trash was collected!
•  The most unusual objects found on the shoreline was a Hooter’s Name Badge for “Matt”!
•  The most unusual object found underwater was a portable toilet!

KAB would like to thank the many volunteers and sponsors that made the 13th Annual Lake Travis Underwater Cleanup possible!
