Part of our mission at Fish for Garbage is to expand our reach with our waterway cleanups. So after years of requests, we were looking forward to answering the call and hosting our first Ogden River Cleanup on July 10th, 2021.
We do our best to coordinate with local partners, organizations, and community members to spread the word about our events - but we always anticipate what the turnout will be at new locations. Thanks to the support of our sponsors and volunteers, we gathered over 100 volunteers and pulled 2,780 pounds of garbage out of a 2.5 mile stretch of the Ogden River!
Thanks to our incredible sponsors, partners and volunteers, our first event in Ogden was a huge success. This event was sponsored by The Crocker Catalyst Foundation.
A big thank you to those who donated and contributed to this event:
