  2020 Friends of the Shiawassee River Cleanup Event

  We’re Counting on YOU!

  This year’s river cleanup event will encourage all participants to work in small groups of your own choosing and pick which stretch of the river you’d like to clean.

  Here's how to volunteer:

  1. Have your family, friends, or a small group commit to a day sometime between July 25^th and August 2^nd and think of an area of the river you would like to clean. You can also volunteer by yourself if you wish.

  2. Click the blue REGISTER button to sign-up.

  AFTER YOU HAVE REGISTERED YOUR GROUP, YOU WILL RECEIVE MORE INFORMATION FROM THE FRIENDS ON WHAT MATERIALS WE WILL PROVIDE FOR YOU, HOW TO PROMOTE YOUR GROUP’S HARD WORK, AND WHERE/WHEN YOU CAN PICK UP YOUR POST-CLEANUP T-SHIRT AND GOODIES.  QUESTIONS? CALL 989-723-9062 OR EMAIL INFO@SHIAWASSEERIVER.ORG.
