Litter — a common source of pollution — threatens the health and beauty of far too many of our treasured lakes, streams and rivers. The Adopt-A-Waterway program offers volunteer groups the opportunity to address water-based litter issues in Richland and Lexington Counties. Please join us in protecting and cleaning up our creeks, rivers, lakes, boat landings and islands.

Adopt-A-Waterway Launch a Success!

Keep the Midlands Beautiful officially launched Adopt-A-Waterway on Saturday, October 4.
99 volunteers from ten different groups removed more than 2,900 pounds of trash and recyclable material from Midlands waterways.

20 groups have signed up for Adopt-A-Waterway so far. It's not too late to get involved, and there are still many waterways available for adoption. Click here to learn more.
