Do Your Part To Keep It Clean: Oak Creek Watercourse Cleanup Set For Oct. 15

I’ve taken part in the last few Oak Creek cleanups, and, unfortunately, there never seems to be a shortage of trash along the banks of the creek. Fortunately, there are people dedicated to maintaining and improving this South Milwaukee jewel.

I hope you can join the Friends of the Mill Pond and Oak Creek Watercourse for the group’s annual fall cleanup set on Saturday, Oct. 15. Cleanup is from 8 a.m. to noon. Meet at South Milwaukee High School parking lot to receive vests, gloves, bags and water.

The cleanup will address Oak Creek from North Chicago Avenue west to Rawson. Lunch will be provided at the Mill Pond warming house.

I hope to see you there!
