The University of Nebraska – Lincoln’s East Campus is a highlight of our state with beautiful, natural areas that exhibit some of the diverse environments Nebraska boasts. Meandering through the campus is Deadman’s Run, a natural part of the local watershed. This area plays host to a number of Nebraska’s native plants and animals and is a shining example of our beautiful campus. However, The rain and winds have drug in large amounts of trash along the run that may impact local wildlife and plants.

To combat this build up of trash on our campus there will be a voluntary trash clean up of east campus. This will take place starting at the area indicated on the map: https://goo.gl/maps/SBP4pMWKYAUSXnos8. Please park in the designated section or walk in if possible.

This will take place March 7th, 2023 from 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM. Supplies for the cleanup will be provided. This will be a volunteer event and is not a requirement.

This is a natural area and is not maintained like a typical landscape. If you plan to attend we highly recommend close-toed shoes, long pants, long sleeved shirt, sunscreen, and muckboots are a plus!

To ensure there are enough supplies please fill out the short registration form in the link below. Include email address in case a cancellation of the event occurs.
