Nonprofit Organizations
There are two organizations particularly concerned with preserving the environment of the river and its adjacent lands, and with providing recreational access to the river: the Hocking River Commission, based in Athens County, Ohio, and the Friends of the Hocking River, based in Hocking County, Ohio. Friends of the Hocking River in conjunction with Hocking Valley Canoe Livery sponsor an annual river clean up. The event is usually held during the second Saturday in June and it concludes with a BBQ and music.
