Description

For 25 years, volunteers have gathered across the greater Toledo region to remove trash from streams, rivers, and Lake Erie during Clean Your Streams Day. Partners for Clean Streams, with help from many partnering organizations, is proud to announce the 25th Annual Clean Your Streams Day on Saturday, September 25. Register here!

Individuals, organizations, businesses, and families with children of all ages are welcome to sign up for this unique service opportunity. The cleanup begins at 8am with check-in, orientation, and light breakfast at some kickoff locations. Groups will then be assigned a site where they will undertake a three-hour cleanup. By 9am, volunteers will spread out to their assigned sites, all within the Ottawa River, Swan Creek, Maumee River, and Lake Erie tributaries and Maumee Bay watersheds.

In the afternoon, volunteers will reconvene for an appreciation picnic, including food, a celebration of accomplishments, and to announce the winners of cleanup challenges and the Trash to Treasure art challenge.
Partners for Clean Streams Inc. is striving for abundant open space and a high quality natural environment; adequate floodwater storage capacities and flourishing wildlife; stakeholders who take local ownership in their resources; and rivers, streams and lakes that are clean, clear and safe
