Register Now for Mission: Clean Stream 2010
On Saturday March 27, volunteers from St. Charles County, Greenway Network, and the communities of Cottleville, Dardenne Prairie, Lake St. Louis, O’Fallon, St. Charles and Wentzville will need your help to remove trash from local streams and lakes. Since inception, the event has taken on a whole new meaning, and name. Operation Clean Stream started as a joint effort to pick up some litter from publicly accessible creek areas. Today, Mission: Clean Stream has evolved into a challenge, or charge, for many to do some serious damage to the amount of trash in our waterways in a very short amount of time. Last year, roughly 500 volunteers pulled over 27,700 pounds of trash from Dardenne, Peruque, Belleau, Spencer and Cole Creeks in a little over two hours!
And even better, Greenway Network has gotten creative with the objects volunteers pull from the creeks. The Stream Trash ART (START) project, created by project director Ralph Rollins, salvages metal pulled from the streams and uses it to create new works of eco-art. Local artists will be working on the 27th at some of the lunch sites to create works of art from materials found. Look for local works to be on display in your community throughout February and March.
Families, organizations and individuals can participate by calling the nearest community to register:
- Dardenne Prairie (636) 561-1718 ext. 7
- Meet at Barat Haven Trailhead
- Cottleville (636) 498-6565 x203

- Meet at Quail Ridge Park, Group Area
- O’Fallon (636) 379-5408
- St. Charles (636) 949-3237
- Meet at City Hall Parking Garage
The day will start at 8:30 a.m. with registration at one of the five rendezvous locations listed above. Everyone is asked to dress for the weather and wear sturdy shoes or boots and bring gloves. Transportation is not provided. Breakfast or lunch will be served depending upon location. Register early—space is limited. Participants registering by March 13 will receive a free T-shirt. In case of dangerous weather or high water, the event will be rescheduled for April 10th.
This community-wide event is sponsored by the cities above, Greenway Network, Inc, Missouri Stream Team, Cee Kay Supply, Inc. and Wal-Mart.
