- Protect our waterways
Craven County Clean Sweep sponsors three annual clean up events on the first Saturdays of February, May and October to help keep New Bern streets and waterways free of litter.
The upcoming one will be Saturday, February 2nd, but if that day is not convenient, you can choose another day that fits your schedule!
It’s your choice to help out in any of these ways: by walking along the streets in your own neighborhood; by using your boat to clean up a waterway; by meeting with others at Lawson Creek Park on that Saturday at 9am to be assigned a spot or by simply picking any other “trashy” area that’s been bothering you.
The amount of time you spend on this is totally up to you – it can be 15 minutes or a few hours. Bags will be provided. The bags will, also, be picked up where you leave them so you do not have to carry them to another spot!
For more information, call 252-633-1477 or visit Craven County Clean Sweep’s webpage.
