Project Clean Stream

Project Clean Stream will kick off on April 2nd, 2021 with cleanups taking place across the Chesapeake Bay watershed and will run through Spring 2021.

Every spring, tens of thousands of volunteers come together to pick up trash from local streams, creeks, rivers, parks, and neighborhoods as part of the Alliance’s Project Clean Stream — the largest cleanup event in the Chesapeake Bay region! We provide supplies for cleanups anywhere in the Chesapeake Bay watershed (all 6 Bay states and the District).

Through Project Clean Stream, the Alliance offers hands-on opportunities through our partnership with residents, local businesses, environmental organizations, local governments, community groups, houses of worship, schools and universities, to take action to restore local streams, creeks, and rivers. These cleanups allow us to come together and foster a healthier and more sustainable relationship with the Chesapeake.

The Alliance works with site captains to coordinate local cleanup events and provides cleanup supplies, such as trash bags and gloves. In addition to becoming a site captain, there are many ways you can get involved in 2021:

• Register as a volunteer at our kick-off event out of our headquarters in Annapolis.
• Become a site captain and coordinate your own Project Clean Stream kick-off event.
• Stay in touch! Sign up to receive email updates about Project Clean Stream.
