For the 33rd year in a row, more than 800 volunteers got together for another River Sweep cleaning in and around the Cuyahoga River.
“We have over 860 volunteers at 20 clean sites through four Cleveland neighborhoods, Garfield Heights and Cuyahoga Heights,” said Mera Cardenas, the executive director for Canalway Partners.
“Days like this when we have so many people coming out here at once are super inspiring to me, like seeing the community come together,” said Olshansky.“Some people are along trails such as Mill Creek or Bochy Park. We have people along roadways on Quigley, West Third,” said Cardenas. “Typically, we would find close to 1,000 tires in a year, but as the area has changed into more public spaces last year, we only found 100 tires. So, you can see the impact.Though there’s still work to be done, she reminds everyone at home that you can also help keep the city clean.
