The River Des Peres Stream Clean Up event brings the community together to restore and protect a vital local waterway. In partnership with Olivette Parks and Recreation, Olivette Sustainability Advocates, and Open Space STL, volunteers help remove litter and debris to improve water quality and support wildlife.
