First cleanup in 2002

Organization

After doing annual cleanups since 2002, the Friends of Little Hunting Creek incorporated in Virginia on 16 November 2012. The Bylaws of the Friends of Little Hunting Creek (as revised by the Board of Directors on 24 June 2022) are available here. We are a 501(c)(3) organization.


Purpose

Creekside Village kids

The purpose of the Friends, as explained in the Articles of Incorporation, is to:

"... encourage the preservation of open space, restoration of riparian habitat, improvement in water quality in the Little Hunting Creek watershed, and to promote stewardship and opportunities for recreational enjoyment of Little Hunting Creek by nearby neighbors and the public. The Friends of Little Hunting Creek seeks to improve nearby neighborhoods by organizing and conducting community cleanups of trash and litter on the creek, by educating citizens about stewardship and litter prevention, and by promoting community access to the creek for recreation and respite."
