Three Mile Creek Watershed
On foot and in boats, hundreds of residents and community volunteers will join together to CLEAN UP THE BOTTOM, the neighborhood adjacent to One and Three Mile Creeks in downtown Mobile, on October 22nd beginning at 8 a.m.
And it is more than about filling up trash bags. Together, the Mobile Bay National Estuary Program, the City of Mobile, MLK Avenue Redevelopment Corporation and Mobile Housing Board have aligned their interests. It is about making the connection that economic development and successful communities do not happen without a healthy environment.
This is the first of many neighborhood clean-ups that will take place throughout the Three Mile Creek Watershed from downtown to west Mobile. We invite you to join us in making a strong statement that trash is more than just a problem; it is a lack of community pride that continues to hold our area back economically, socially and environmentally.
Your support and attendance on this day will further underscore the positive action taking place and demonstrate that true civic pride is found by each of us taking ownership and responsibility for our community and its environment, not waiting for someone else to take care of our backyards for us.
Join the Mobile Bay National Estuary Program and other partners BP, Bridgestone Tires, The City of Mobile, Coca-Cola, Keep Mobile Beautiful, Mobile Gas, Waste Management and the Southeastern Wildlife Conservation Group and come support this Clean up- Come and be a part of an evolution of the City of Mobile, its cultural integrity, and its unique and valued estuarine environment.
