Volunteers Wanted for 2024 Spring River Cleanup

It’s that time of year again; it’s time for EnviroScience’s 2024 Spring River Cleanup!

For over 20 years, our Corporate Responsibility Committee (CRC) has been hosting a biannual river cleanup event to help fish out debris from the Little Cuyahoga River in Akron, Ohio. This spring’s event is slated to take place on Saturday, April 20, 2024, from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm, and we’re looking for volunteers of all ages to help us in this effort.

This is an employee-led tradition that EnviroScience has spearheaded since 2002—bringing EnviroScience employees, family members, loved ones, and community members together to remove trash from the Little Cuyahoga River and the Ohio & Erie Canal while raising awareness of the litter problem in our local streams.
