Creek Cleanup

Monthly | 8:00am-10:00am | North Building.

Register by noon on the Tuesday before each cleanup.

This is a fun and fin-tastic way for families and groups to be outside and working together. Trash that finds its way into the ocean can travel long distances with the currents and winds. Plastic bags and plastic wrap can suffocate marine animals and fish. Birds can easily entangle themselves in plastic six-pack rings and strings. Animals can also get sick or die from swallowing trash, such as cigarette butts. Humans, animals, and plants all need unpolluted water to survive. Help us keep our local marine and aquatic wildlife safe by giving a few hours of your time to clean up this trash.
