2nd Annual Hillsborough River Cleanup
Join us for an impactful river cleanup followed by a free celebratory beer at Coppertail Brewing Co.
We’re teaming up with Ball Corporation for the second year in a row to celebrate National Recycling Week with a meaningful cleanup on the Hillsborough River!
Last year, we removed nearly 300 pounds of trash, and this time we’re tackling a new section of the river that could use some extra love.
Join us for an impactful river cleanup followed by an after-party at Coppertail Brewing Co.—complete with giveaways and a free celebratory beer.
Bring your friends, bring your kids, and come make a difference with us!

Reduce Waste. Recycle.
Here are some fun facts about the power of recycling. They will surprise you!
Recycling just one aluminum can saves enough energy to power an iPad for 5.5 hours.
Every year more than $1.5 Billion worth of aluminum goes to the landfill in North America alone.
On average, it takes as little as 60 days for a can to go from your recycling bin, through the recycling process, and back on a store shelf as a new can filled with your favorite beverage.
