The Forest Preserve District of Kane County and Friends of the Fox River are excited to announce a special event called, “It’s Our Fox River Day,” taking place Saturday, Sept. 21, from 9:30 a.m. to noon at Glenwood Park Forest Preserve, 1644 S. River Street, Batavia.
“It’s Our Fox River Day” is a unique opportunity for community members to come together and make a positive impact on the health and beauty of the Fox River. This watershed-wide event aims to celebrate, protect, and restore the health of the Fox River.
Participants can actively contribute by participating in a river clean-up. Volunteers will work collectively to beautify the river, its banks, and the nearby trails. We’ll provide drinking water, snacks, disposable gloves, and trash bags.
To register as a volunteer, visit https://friendsofthefoxriver.org/its-our-fox-river-day or email CleaveRobb@kaneforest.com.
