About
Us The Mission The
Allegheny River is one of America’s most beautiful and clean rivers. For more
than a decade the waterway has been designated one of the nation’s Wild and Scenic
Rivers. It is also home to seven islands protected under America’s National Wilderness
Preservation System. Every year, hundreds of people come to the river to enjoy
its beauty and bounty. The
mission of the Allegheny River Clean-up is to help keep this
valuable resource healthy for generations to come. Our goals are three-prong:
· To remove garbage
found in or along the Allegheny River and its tributaries for the ecological health
of this resource and the safety and enjoyment of residents and visitors.
· To promote stewardship of the Allegheny
River watershed and highlight how it has been, and continues to be, an important
recreational, ecological and economic asset to Warren County. ·
To promote a spirit of giving back to the community. We encourage everyone to
get involved in our 3-day cleanup this fall. |
