Our 2nd Annual Fall Fundraiser was a success! Thanks to all of the generous donors, sponsors, and community to showed up to support the cause. Thanks for helping us wrap up 2022 with a bang.

Cleaning the Weber always brings surprises, either because of the weather in September, or the type of garbage left from people floating all summer long. However, we always, always get an enthusiastic group of volunteers, ready for some hard work picking up trash and enjoying good company.

After putting this cleanup on hold for a few years due to the pandemic, we are thrilled to have partnered with BlackStrap. Based in Bend, Oregon the company has been one of our longest and most dedicated sponsors.

We couldn’t have asked for more perfect weather for our favorite event of the year! The air was warm, the sky was blue, the water was cool to the touch and the scenery and wildlife was picturesque. Fish For Garbage teamed up with GROGA (Green River Outfitters & Guides Association) and other volunteers to either float down the river in various watercrafts or walk along the river trail.

We came back to Strawberry Reservoir for our second cleanup and campout weekend! Our team always enjoys campouts because it gives us an opportunity to spend more time with our volunteers and Fish for Garbage community. We pulled roughly 3,000 pounds out of the reservoir and surrounding areas with the help of 80 volunteers.

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!
