Hosted by Friends of the Riverfront and Allegheny CleanWays, the Litter League is a 6-week competition for Allegheny County’s best litter picking teams!

THE HELPERS
Support and inspire the league through generous, enthusiastic sportsmanship and outstanding courtesy
THE HEAVY LIFTERS
Collect the most overall litter (by weight)
THE ARCHIVISTS
Demonstrate the most detailed and thorough reporting
THE CLEANUP ARTISTS
Exhibit the most creative reuse of litter
