These days are hard for everyone, and it’s easy to feel helpless. But what if we reconnect with nature and help our rivers instead? Spring has officially sprung and, if you’re spending time outside, you’ve surely noticed that litter has too!

Start a Netflix Party or Facebook Watch with your friends, or enjoy a cozy date night in with one of these aquatic features!
