Picking up trash along our waterways is a little thing that can make a big difference for our streams. Louisville MSD, Louisville Metro Parks and Kentucky Watershed Alliance (KWA) are hosting a “COVID-19 cautious” volunteer effort to improve water quality in the Middle Fork of Beargrass Creek.

To keep our groups to 10 or less, please register one of five locations. 

  • Cherokee Park at Lexington Road
  • Cherokee Park near Big Rock
  • Arthur K. Draut Park
  • A.B. Sawyer Park
  • Forest Green Trail

About one-third of all water that falls in the Beargrass Creek watershed lands on impervious surfaces, such as roofs and pavement—collecting toxins, pollutants, and sediments as it makes its way to the creek. Picking up trash in and around the area helps reduce pollution in our waterways.

Wear your mask and practice social distancing!
