Volunteers Clean up, Have Fun at the Great Bud Light River Run

Keep America Beautiful Teams Up with Bud Light on Volunteer Events in Seattle, Portland

Volunteers, in partnership with SOLVE, Keep America Beautiful and Bud Light, picked up nearly 80 pounds of litter and cigarette butts along the shoreline of the Sandy River in Oregon.

Volunteers picked up more than 100 pounds of litter around Seattle's Pioneer Square and CenturyLink Stadium, home of the Seattle Seahawks, in downtown Seattle.

Volunteers were joined by former NBA star Brent Barry for the cleanup activities and the post-cleanup river float down the Wenatchee River in Washington state.
