CREEK CONNECTIONS ACTION GROUP

The Creek Connections Action Group (CCAG) was formed in San José, California, in the fall of 1995 by several local agency coordinators whose goal was to collaborate their creek cleanup efforts in Santa Clara County. Since the group's inception, thousands of volunteers have participated in hundreds of cleanups, removing thousands of pounds of trash each year from creeks, rivers, and lakes in Santa Clara County.

CCAG coordinates two creek cleanups a year in Santa Clara County:

National River Cleanup Day - held the third Saturday in May
