Preserving the Platte and Betsie RiversEach year, we organize volunteer cleanups on the Platte and Betsie Rivers to remove anthropogenic debris like bottles, tires, and tangles of fishing line. Removing trash not only helps to preserve the quality of these rivers, but it also reveals information about the sources of litter.
At the cleanups, stewards from around the region gather with our partners from the Boardman River Clean Sweep and the Traverse Area Paddle Club to help keep these rivers beautiful, healthy, and safe. Thank you to all volunteers across the years who came out and made a difference! See below for pictures from prior events. |
