Allegheny Clean Ways Tireless Project

Thank you to Allegheny Clean Ways Tireless Project for collecting an amazing amount of river garbage around Steel City Rowing Club's riverfront! So many volunteers! 

This program is a collaborative endeavor of several organizations with a common interest in the waterways of Pittsburgh. The Tireless Project was launched in 2003 by the Three Rivers Rowing Association in partnership with Nat Stone, a free-lance writer and rower who was horrified by the enormous volume of tires along the city's riverbanks when he rowed through on his adventure from New York City to New Orleans. Since its beginnings, more than 2,600 volunteers have extracted 173 tons of debris, including 2170 tires and 310 bags of recyclables from the rivers' shores.
