Looking for a way to give back this spring? Participate in Raleigh Regional Creek Week in March and/or North Carolina Litter Sweep in April! 

Creek Week is sponsored by Clean Water Education Partnership (CWEP). Events are planned throughout the Raleigh area to educate the public about the importance of clean water. During the week of March 13-20, volunteers are encouraged to pick up trash in and around local waterways. Gloves and bags will be available for pickup at the Holly Shelter at White Deer Park on Sunday, March 14 between the hours of 1 and 3pm.

Litter Sweep is sponsored by the Department of Transportation. This cleanup event will be held April 10-24 and focuses on roadways.

For more information about either event, contact Katie Lockhart, Outdoor Education and Parks Manager, at klockhart@garnernc.gov.
