Restoring and protecting waterways is a forever business. It’s also both a community and individual effort.
One way to get involved is to join Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful’s Waterway Stewards Program (PDF). Members of this program commit to collecting and disposing of litter along and within waterways to help keep Pennsylvania’s rivers and streams as the valuable community assets and recreation destinations they are.
Waterway stewards receive a cleanup kit in the mail. The kit includes a litter grabber, mesh bag, gloves, and data card.
Water trail users, outdoor enthusiasts, and anyone who cares about the health and safety of their local waterway can become a steward.
Applications opened Friday, July 1. To apply, visit the Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful website.
