SC Beach & River Sweep

Saturday, September 21, 2024

9am – 12pm

SC Beach Sweep/River Sweep is South Carolina’s largest volunteer litter-cleanup event on the state’s waterways. It’s a tradition since 1988 and happens the 3rd Saturday in September when thousands of citizens volunteer across the state gather to clear trash from our beaches, rivers, lakes, creeks, and wetlands. Data collected in this cleanup and others within the region will be used to advocate for stronger plastic and solid waste policies.
