Help keep Lake Monona’s shoreline clean and healthy by joining our monthly shoreline cleanup. Volunteers will walk designated shoreline areas to pick up litter and debris that collect along the water’s edge. These cleanups improve water quality, protect wildlife, and keep our parks welcoming for everyone. This is a great ongoing opportunity for individuals, families, and groups who want to make a visible impact in a short amount of time.
