Who?
You. We are reaching out to the residents on the Chain to pitch in for a few hours. It is fun to meet your ‘lake neighbors’ and get a project done that benefits everyone! Plus, it is a great way for young people to earn Community Service Hours.
Where?
There are two check-in locations: one for Lakes Rowena and Estelle and one for Lake Formosa. Equipment and instructions will be available at each location. Both locations are suitable for launching kayaks and paddle boards.
-- For the cleanup of Lakes Rowena and Estelle, streets and parkways in the watershed area, and all inlet markings, meet by the lift station at 1200 Lake Shore Dr., Orlando
-- For Lake Formosa cleanup, meet at 1801 Alden Rd., Orlando


How?
KOB will be providing pick-up tongs, gloves, safety vests, trash bags, and other equipment. Volunteers will be organized into goal-based groups depending on interest. If you are able, please bring shallow-water vessels to help with the water-based effort. Because lakes are low this time of year, jon boats, kayaks, canoes, and even paddleboards are great options.
Join our next Lake Cleanup in early November.
Date will be announced soon.
