2023 Provo River Clean Up

We are thrilled to share the success of the Fish For Garbage Lower Provo River Clean Up, held on April 29, 2023. With the help of over 300 volunteers, we were able to collect an impressive 9,240 pounds of garbage from the river and surrounding areas. That’s 30.5 lbs per person with a total of over 900 combined volunteer hours.

Working off the success of the 2021 events we had no doubt that this year's clean up was going to see great participation, new and old friends and plenty of garbage removed from the Lower Provo River. We were not disappointed!
