Wet & Wild Camp
The Litter Ends Here program was honored to be invited to Greenville County Soil & Water Conservation District’s Wet & Wild Camp at Lake Robinson. Together we taught kids about the damaging effects litter has on our watershed and the kids even helped clean up litter around the lake.
Free Tarps
Keep Greenville County Beautiful joined the Litter Ends Here program as we handed out free tarps at Twin Chimney Landfill. Together we educated the public about securing items in a vehicle so they don't end up on the side of the road.
