Noblesville, Carmel Partner for 31st Annual White River Clean-Up

Noblesville and Carmel are partnering to host the 31st Annual White River Clean-Up on Sunday, Sept. 14, from 8 a.m. to noon. This annual event brings volunteers together to help make an immediate, positive impact on the White River by removing trash from the water and its banks.

The event offers volunteers a unique opportunity to participate by canoeing on the river. Organizers ask that participants be comfortable paddling a canoe and navigating the river’s shoreline.
