Seattle Summer Sweep - Lake Union Fireworks Cleanup

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Puget Soundkeeper Alliance

  • 5 people are interested

Show your patriotic spirit by cleaning up the morning after the big day! Register below to help remove firework debris from Lake Union and its surrounding areas on Sunday, July 5th.

On the day following the Gasworks July 4th Fireworks Show, Puget Soundkeeper Alliance and partners will lead a kayak cleanup of Lake Union, as well as coordinate neighborhood walking cleanups in Wallingford, Eastlake and South Lake Union. Firework debris, sparklers, beer cans, lawn chairs, flip-flops and other party causalities will be collected, weighed and picked up by Seattle Public Utilities before they have a chance to pollute our waterways.

As we all know, summer in Seattle officially begins on July 5th, so we expect sunshine!
