We believe our work goes beyond just creating cleaner, healthier, and more enjoyable waterways, rivers parks and adjacent river trails; we celebrate community spirit and civic pride. The greater Kalamazoo area has so much to boast about and celebrate!
In the spring of 2024, we led the largest volunteer-led stewardship project in Kalamazoo’s history. On a chilly April morning, hundreds of volunteers came together to clear thousands of pounds of litter and trash from the Kalamazoo River, stretching from Comstock to Parchment.

Because of this early spring date, during a time of traditional high water and swift river speeds, for reasons of personal safety, we are not currently planning to include an on-river component. This will be done at a later date during late spring or summer, with a through year-end sweep in the fall.
