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! This April, during Earth Month, we’re hoping you’ll consider taking a bag or bucket and some gloves along on your next trip around the block to help pick up trash. It’s easy. It feels good. It’s safe. But more importantly, it makes a difference.
We have made the difficult, but necessary, decision to postpone the 25th Annual Milwaukee Riverkeeper Spring Cleanup until later this year, due to the coronavirus and current social distancing requirements. In place of a large cleanup event, we will be hosting a virtual cleanup challenge during Earth Month, April. Stay tuned for details.
This month we’re featuring EPIC Creative in our Business Member Spotlight. Located in West Bend, this creative firm has shown commitment to the rivers and natural areas through their continued stewardship and sponsorship of Milwaukee Riverkeeper’s cleanup events.
This month we’re featuring Boone & Crockett in our Business Member Spotlight. Located along the Kinnickinnic river, this cocktail bar and whisky lounge has chosen to be a steward of the natural areas adjacent to their property!
