Spring Litter Clean Up – 2020
Logo Design Contest
Clermont County & East Fork Little Miami River Watershed
Event History
The Valley View Foundation, the East Fork Watershed Collaborative and the Office of Environmental Quality work together to support communities and volunteers throughout Clermont County and the East Fork Little Miami River Watershed for the annual Spring Litter Clean Up. This event is a combination of two events that have proved successful for more than 20 years in Clermont County. The Clean & Green program was started by local citizens and businesses, who believed it was a priority to address the litter problem in their region, enhance the quality of life for the county’s residents and raise environmental awareness. The event grew with the support of Clermont 20/20 and in 2011, was adopted by the Valley View Foundation to continue the beneficial efforts.
The East Fork Watershed Collaborative works diligently to protect and enhance the biological, chemical and physical integrity of the East Fork Little Miami River and its tributaries. The River Sweep event began in 1992 and has had a tremendous impact on the river and its banks.
Every Volunteer Counts!!
Our success is due to individuals, families and groups who choose to share a part of their day to participate in our event. We typically have between 600-800 volunteers, collect 500-800 bags of trash, 30-80 tires and random large items that have been dumped...in just three hours!
