The Tennessee River Gorge Trust leads the Suck Creek clean up zone and we need your help!
30 years ago, a group of concerned citizens started a grassroots effort to clean the excessive trash out of the Tennessee River. Decades later, this effort has continued to make a difference in our Scenic City.
Each year volunteers help protect our source of drinking water during Tennessee River Rescue. Hundreds of people fan out across 20 zones in Bradley, Hamilton and Marion counties to clean up the banks of the Tennessee River and some tributaries. Tons of tires, plastic bottles and other trash have been removed by these eco-warriors over the years.
