Great American CleanUp-Fountain Creek Watershed & Arkansas River
Saturday, April 15, 2023
The Keep America Beautiful 'Great American Cleanup' is the nation’s largest community improvement program, which takes place annually during spring in over 15,000 communities nationwide. This is a great opportunity to earn community service hours and make a difference in southern Colorado.
The Fountain Creek Watershed District is organizing this 1-day cleanup in collaboration with local governments, nonprofits, friends groups and neighborhoods. We encourage everyone to join a cleanup near you and give our home watershed a spring cleaning! Trash bags and gloves will be provided. Please dress appropriately for our ever-changing weather, bring sunscreen, gloves, and wear closed toe shoes. Participants under 16 must be supervised. All participants are required to fill out a liability waiver. Registration opens after March 1. If interested in hosting an event site, contact creekweeksoco@gmail.com
Volunteers will be working from Palmer Lake to Pueblo...see website to choose an area.
