Join us at Keep Indianapolis Beautiful to help protect and preserve an important natural resource of Indianapolis--Pleasant Run! We will be removing litter along the banks of the stream, where it often collects within vegetation. By picking up litter we will beautify our city while protecting our local ecosystems, including our soil, waterways, plants, and wildlife, from pollution. Litter prevention is one of the easiest things we can do to keep our city clean, but it takes all of us doing our part! We will be cleaning Pleasant Run in Christian Park (1-2 miles) at this location. *It is an expectation for every volunteer at any KIB project to remain respectful of the spaces and neighborhoods we are in as reflected by both our language and actions.*

Safety: We highly recommend wearing weather-appropriate clothing, sunscreen, and close-toed shoes. We always recommend bringing a reusable bottle for water but we will have disposable cups available if needed. KIB and BNS will provide all supplies, such as litter grabbers, gloves, and trash bags. This project is family friendly!

Parking and Facilities: Parking will be available in the lots adjacent to the baseball diamonds at Christian Park (3900 E Pleasant Run Pkwy S Dr). Restrooms will be available for use in the Christian Park Family Center.

Transportation Information: IndyGo Bus #26 stops at Sherman Drive & English Ave. (a 5 minute walk to the project). Click here to plan your trip with IndyGo!

*While we love group attendance at volunteer projects, all participants in a group must be registered individually.*
