Milwaukee Riverkeeper Spring Cleanup Event Slated for April 22

MILWAUKEE – This Spring, Milwaukee Riverkeeper will host the 28th Annual Milwaukee Riverkeeper Spring Cleanup.  This massive, one-day, community-wide effort to clean up the waterways is unlike any other in our state. Last year alone, 4,000 volunteers removed more than 100,000 pounds of trash from more than 90 locations across the watershed, making this the largest single day cleanup event in Southeast Wisconsin.

This truly remarkable event engages thousands, bringing together community groups, businesses, and individuals across our watershed to beautify and restore our rivers, parks and communities.
