SUMMARY:4th Annual Spring Sweep presented by Entergy
DESCRIPTION:Lake Pontchartrain Basin Foundation (LPBF) will hold its annual Spring Sweep\, a day designated to clean up around the Lake Pontchartrain Basin\, on Saturday\, March 24\, 2018\, from 9:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Now in its 4th year\, LPBF's Spring Sweep is held in conjunction with the Great American Cleanup sponsored by Keep America Beautiful. Volunteers\, partners\, and sponsors help care for the areas that drain the Pontchartrain Basin by cleaning curbs\, ditches\, and storm drains on city streets and rural roadways. Designated areas for cleanup around the lake at this time include Orleans\, Jefferson\, St. Bernard\, St. Charles\, St. John\, St. Tammany\, and Tangipahoa parishes. Debris picked up by volunteers is recorded on data cards that catalogue and quantify the types and amounts of trash collected. LPBF forwards this data to local water quality authorities. To say thank you to the volunteers\, on Spring Sweep day LPBF's Spring Sweep partners provide a picnic for registered participants. The picnic serves as a way to bring together everyone to celebrate the clean sweep of our region. Spring Sweep is an excellent avenue for stewardship and education/outreach. It provides a wonderful opportunity to help in keeping Lake Pontchartrain swimmable.
