About The Clean-Up
The annual White River Clean-up is organized every year with some of our municipal partners in Hamilton County. This event is free, and usually takes place in late summer or early fall. We provide gloves, trash grabbers, and tools to pull tires. Dumpsters will be available at the end of the float so that trash can be disposed of properly.
The 2024 Clean-Up was held on September 15 and will return in Fall 2025.
To stay up-to-date or learn about the next event, we recommend subscribing to our newsletter or following us on social media. Click the button below to signup.
