Most of us have sought the calm and peace of the lake, streams and the myriad trails along the Rouge River Headwaters. Our children play here and ride their bikes and scooters along these trails. After a long and windy winter, garbage has blown around neighborhoods, into our parks, wetlands & woodlands. Lets join hands to help cleanup our community so we all can continue to enjoy this natural haven in its clean and pristine form!

Community Service:
As a small group of friends, we can work together to protect and preserve this natural habitat. The clean-up drive will educate us all of the importance of not polluting the place we call home. This will teach children social responsibility and connect them to the land where they were born. We can all do our bit to make the world a better place and develop an appreciation and love for the natural world.

Lets soak in some sun and have fun while serving the community!!!

Adults, kids, seniors ...all are welcome to join! 
High school students can earn "community volunteer hours"
