Let's make a difference!
Canal Cleanups offers users of the Ohio & Erie Canal Towpath Trail the opportunity to keep our natural spaces healthy and thriving for generations to come. On average, more than 3 tons of trash have been removed annually since the program began in the early 2000s, transforming destinations along the trail like Summit Lake and the aqueduct bridge in Bolivar. All are welcome, from adults to children, as we build stewardship of our recreational and natural spaces throughout the Ohio & Erie Canalway National Heritage Area.
Upcoming 2023 Dates
All cleanups are held from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.
Our next cleanup will take place Saturday, April 22 at Summit Lake and Ohio & Erie Canal Park. Sign up below!
