Spring Sweep Details
Every April we host one of the largest cleanup events in the Western New York region – the Spring Sweep. Registration is now open and you can sign up here!
Buffalo Niagara Waterkeeper’s Spring Sweep is part of the annual Great Lakes CleanUP, where we are joined by volunteers across the Great Lakes region to remove litter from our shorelines and protect our waterways. Our Spring Sweep gets over 1,000 volunteers together around Earth Day to remove thousands of pounds of trash from our shorelines and communities. The Great Lakes is the drinking water resource for over 40 million people and we are excited to lead this region-wide stewardship event.
