Who We Are
Minnie’s Island is located near the Maryland bank of the Potomac River about 100 yards off-shore from Lockhouse 8 on the C&O Canal. It is roughly eight acres of boulders, trees, plants, and wildlife. At one end of the island sits a 30-foot by 15-foot wooden cabin with a large deck. The Minnie's Island Community Conservancy (MICC) mission is to restore, protect, and maintain Minnie's Island. Our vision is to engage the community and make sure the island is inviting, accessible, and a safe environment for nature-based recreation, social connection, education, conservation, and scientific research.
What We Do
Volunteers for Minnie's Island can help clear trails, help remove invasive species, assist visitors to the island, assist with trash removal from the island as well as help with any planting or renovation projects going on in the cabin or the island grounds. Volunteers can enjoy the natural environment around them.
