Litter Prevention Clean Stream Teams Hoping to raise awareness and appreciation of Lewisville Lake, its shorelines, local streams, creeks, and waterways, Keep Lewisville Beautiful and the City of Lewisville have come up with a new program called "Clean Stream Team" in which residents have the chance to adopt and take care of a waterway. Similar to past "Trinity Trash Bashes" this program focuses on cleaning Lewisville's waterways across the city. However instead of cleaning once a year, we are hoping to have monthly or bi-monthly clean ups focusing on the importance of clean waterways. Perhaps you have an unsightly creek behind your house or in your favorite park that you want to do something about- This is the perfect program for you! Similar to the Adopt-A-Spot program, Clean Stream Teams can be formed by families, organizations, scouts, businesses, or individuals who share our passion in maintaining our environment. If you are interested in adopting a stream and forming a team, or would like more information about this program, please call 972-436-5100 or send an e-mail to info@keeplewisvillebeautiful.org. Make a difference today and give us a call! To fill out a Clean Stream Team form and get started today, please visit our online request form page. ** Golden Fish Scavenger Hunt!** Are you good at solving puzzles? Do you like to help out the environment? Then join us in our 2009 Golden Fish Scavenger hunt where you can do both and have twice the fun! Hoping to raise awareness and appreciation of the Trinity River, Lewisville Lake, and their respective shorelines, Keep Lewisville Beautiful (KLB) is participating in the 2009 Trinity Trash Bash (TTB). The Trinity River plays an enormous role in supplying water to many in Texas. It is 715 miles long and the collection basin covers 17 counties and 17,965 square miles of the great state of Texas. The Trinity River Basin is the primary water source for 6 million people in the upper basin and 5 million in the upper gulf coast region. It also provides water to over half of the states population. With the importance of the Trinity River and its Basin in mind, KLB as part of a regional effort with 19 other organizations and T.R.E.E.S. organization, is hosting a TTB cleaning time frame and a scavenger hunt for the Golden Fish. The Golden Fish is a $100.00 prize that will be given to the lucky winner of our scavenger hunt. The TTB is being held from September 5th to October 24th. KLB will be accepting and coordinating volunteers for the water way clean up during this time. All individuals and groups are welcome to join in the effort. Groups will be assigned locations and supplies to clean as they schedule their clean up times with KLB. For individuals, teams, and groups who want to go the extra mile, you can sign up to hunt for the Golden Fish. Trinity Trash Bash grocery tote bags, coloring books, and bracelets, thanks to the Clean Rivers Program with the Trinity River Authority, are also available to those who sign up for the scavenger hunt. The Golden Fish prize will be hidden in the city of Lewisville. It’s up to you to find the Golden Fish and help keep our waterways clean and healthy! Ready for some fun? Here's how to find that Golden Fish!
Rules:
Good Luck Volunteers!
