The Las Vegas Wash Coordination Committee (LVWCC) will sponsor a community scheduled for Saturday, March 8th from noon to 4pm at the Las Vegas Wash.  This year the event reached desired capacity through the use of the newly created volunteer database in record time.  Participants in the event will plant nearly 2,000 trees and shrubs at the Wash Green-up.

The LVWCC was created to manage and protect the Las Vegas Wash, the critical final link in our watershed.  Its members include local, state and federal agencies, environmental groups and the business community.  During the past eight years, volunteers working with the LVWCC have added more than 30,000 plants and removed about 500,000 pounds of trash from the environmentally sensitive area.
