Adopt-a-Drain

Presented by the Hamline University Center for Global Environmental Education and the Metro Watershed Partners.
“Rake up! Sweep up! Pick up!” Learn about the importance of reducing stormwater pollution and get your photo taken keeping a storm drain clean from runoff pollution. Join more than 16,000 resident participants across Minnesota when you sign up to adopt a storm drain in your neighborhood. You'll receive a yard sign that recognizes your commitment to keeping lakes and rivers healthy through your pledge to regularly clean your storm drain. Plus, you'll get to name your drain and add its name to our poster. Stop by to play arcade games like air hockey and foosball that highlight the connection between Minnesota's changing climate and pollutants washing into storm drains. Find out why it's now more important than ever to take action to protect local waterways.
