Rivers Alive Stream Cleanup

Every October, Clayton County Water Authority hosts a Rivers Alive Stream Clean up at a local creek or river to clean up trash, debris and other pollutants.  This is a great community activity for scouts, youth groups, environmental clubs, families and civic groups. CCWA provides trash bags, gloves and a commemorative t-shirt. Though all ages are welcome, children under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult at all times.

Our 2023 event took place on October 21 at Swint Elementary (500 Highway 138 SE, Jonesboro). Thank you to our community volunteers and CCWA staff who cleaned up around Hurricane Creek last year! Following the cleanup, volunteers enjoyed lunch and learning activities including our What NOT to Flush corn hole game, Enviroscape demonstration and our hit prize wheel! Mark your calendars – our 2024 Rivers Alive Stream Cleanup is set for October 19, 2024, at Mundys Mill High School (9652 Fayetteville Rd, Jonesboro).
