The cleanup is an annual event, coordinated by the Oklahoma Scenic Rivers Commission. The event is sponsored by Georgia-Pacific, Armstrong Bank, Reasor’s Food Warehouse, STIR (Save the Illinois River), the Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality (ODEQ), and the Cherokee Nation Natural Resources Department. The canoes for the cleanup will be provided by the Illinois River Association. Organizations, businesses and individuals are invited to participate.
