The Creek Week cleanup aims to bring the Fountain Creek Watershed communities together to foster the health of our local waterways for its citizens and wildlife alike. Individuals and groups are invited to form a "Creek Crew" during the biggest cleanup in the state of Colorado! Trash and debris on the land eventually end up in our waterways. This rubbage clogs drainage systems, impacts wildlife, affects water quality, and ruins the view of our beautiful natural landscape. Commit today to take action by volunteering for a cleanup at one of over 100 sites over 9 days throughout your home watershed.
