The first Clean Sweep was held in Dayton in 1986, and officially began in Butler, Hamilton, and Warren Counties in 2005. Since then, thousands of tires and hundreds of tons of trash have been removed from the river. Along with the usual fast food trash, we have removed bowling balls, mannequins, and too many tvs to count.
