Clean Your Streams - Litter Cleanup

Do you like clean water? So do we! To help make our local BGSU waterways cleaner, Campus Sustainability is participating in the annual Clean Your Streams Day and YOU can help us!  On Friday, September 29th from 1pm-4pm, we need volunteers for a trash cleanup starting at the former BGSU golf course on Poe Road. All supplies will be provided! Parking is at 1616 E Poe Rd, Bowling Green, OH 43402. Wear long pants and boots if you have them; dress for the weather. This event is in collaboration with Partners for Clean Streams and a participation of a weekend of cleanups across our watershed. Try to wear BGSU gear because we'll want to represent our school in photos! If you want to volunteer, but are unable to make it to BGSU’s cleanup on Friday the 29^th, check out their website for other regional service opportunities on Saturday the 30th.

This program is hosted by the environmental group Partners for Clean Streams and in its 27th year. CYS Day is a Maumee River Watershed-wide trash and litter cleanup in late September. BGSU Campus Sustainability supports the mission of PCS, and on September 29^th we will be hosting our own campus cleanups at the old Golf Course Ponds from 1pm in the afternoon, going until 4pm. Lots of litter ends up being blown into this area by the wind. 3 hours with a decent sized group should be enough to clean around the biggest water body and its ditches on campus. Come get outside, get service credit, and invite your friends! Please email greenbg@bgsu if you are coming and have a nice camera. We could use a photographer at this event as well!
