River Clean Up

Millions of tons of trash are left along our nation’s rivers and streams every year.  Roadside litter also makes its way into our waterways through storm drain systems.  All this trash takes away from the beauty and safety of our waterways. That’s why CCWSA’s Annual River Clean-Ups are so important. Join us in giving back to the community by helping clean up in and around our rivers in Cherokee County. Fall is a great time to get outdoors and enjoy the beauty and wildlife as well as make a difference. Sign-up to participate with your family and friends and see how pristine we can make our rivers. We sure could use the help!

Dates are subject to change if conditions are considered unsafe for any reason.
State guidelines regarding Covid-19 precautions will be adhered to at the event.
Sign-up in advance by e-mail Lori Forrester lori.forrester@ccwsa.com or call 770-479-1813 Ext. 246.
