Less water means a concentration of contaminants. Now more than ever, river habitat needs our help to ensure pollutants stay out of the water. Your participation as a volunteer or contribution as a sponsor shows your advocacy for healthy waterways and riparian habitat. Remove garbage from the waterway to restore a healthy riparian ecosystem, enjoy time outdoors, make friends, and win amazing prizes! Prizes include local gift cards, swag, and outdoor gear!
