Earth Day Community Cleanup

ORK will hold a community cleanup as a part of the Great American Cleanup through Keep Georgia Beautiful Foundation in the upper watershed. The event will take place at 2 main locations: river landings in Louisville (~30 volunteers) and a river shoals location near Hamburg State Park (This location is full). 

Volunteers will sign up for a specific location and meet at that location’s designated supply pickup/drop-off spot. Volunteers will clean up their location and meet back at the supply spot to drop off trash and supplies.
