About

The ‘X-Stream Squad’ will meet once every month on a Saturday beginning in February 2021. They will spend their time cleaning trash out of the banks and streams throughout the city, removing litter from potentially polluting the area. Many of the streams in La Vergne, including Hurricane Creek, flow into Percy Priest Lake.

“This is a great volunteer opportunity for our community,” says Stormwater Coordinator Alexandra Thompson. “Our streams are extremely important to our ecosystem and the animals who depend on them.”

Each event will be limited to ten volunteers to ensure proper social distancing. Masks are encouraged. Gloves, bags, and bottled water will be provided.
