Join us to celebrate Make a Difference Day! 

Participating in Litter Clean Ups in McKinney, especially along Wilson Creek, play a crucial role in preserving our local environment and safeguarding the East Fork Trinity River & Lavon Lake – our drinking water supply. Trash or pollutants can contaminate these critical water sources. Since Lavon Lake is a primary reservoir for our drinking water, keeping it free of litter is essential for maintaining water quality and public health. By removing debris, we protect aquatic habitats, prevent harmful runoff, and ensure clean, safe water for our community. These efforts also foster community pride and demonstrate a collective commitment to sustainability, keeping our natural spaces beautiful and healthy for future generations.
