Join us for the 2021 Summer Litter Clean-Up in Clermont County and the East Fork Little Miami River Watershed.  Volunteers are needed throughout the month of June!  Individuals and small groups can Do-It-Yourself (DIY) at the location of your choice, or join coordinated in-person events (space will be limited) at various locations. Volunteers can enjoy the outdoors while helping to spruce up our local communities. Join us and register for the event today at https://www.springlittercleanup.com/.
