River Clean-up Projects
The Council has organized multiple river clean-up sessions over the years to purge the Pere Marquette River of cans, bottles, plastic and many strange and unexpected objects. Using canoes, kayaks and drift boats as well as walking the roads and public access sites, PMWC and friends have worked to keep everybody’s river as pristine as possible. Ferris State University Honors Students volunteered to assist PMWC with a river clean-up project, bringing conservation issues in focus for young people. These activities often occur on or about Earth Day and we invite your participation at further clean-ups.
