How Do I Participate?

As a leader of ORB river, watershed, or river-aligned groups whose program involves activities on (e.g., floats) or along (e.g., cleanups) one or more rivers, streams or creeks that are in the Ohio River Basin, we ask you to do the following for ORB events that take place by July 31, 2026:

 

  • CoBrand events #OhioRiverBasinProud - click here to access the event host toolkit

    • Add the campaign logo (click here to view/download) to website, social media, handouts and other materials

    • Include the #OhioRiverBasinProud as a stated initiative at in-person events

    • Mention #OhioRiverBasinProud objectives during interviews or articles about your event(s).

  • Inform us of your event’s location, description

  • Inform your congressional representative of the event and its co-branding

  • Provide post-event photos and participation level

    • The number of events, participants, and impressions, and

    • The number of congressional delegates who are signed up to support the Congressional ORB Caucus.

Register your event here to display it on our map: Pre-Event Form

 

On the day of or after your event, we will send a follow up form to collect photos and attendance information.

 

To thank you as an organizer and to support your event, we’ll mail a 2.5 liter waterproof ORB bag and 60 ORB decals (see below!) to share with your volunteers to the first sixty registrants.

 

Share the river-runner.samlearner.com, a super fun tool that will help you encourage awareness of the Basin’s extent.

 

When your event has concluded, you’ll receive a Wrap-up Survey from us.

 

Sign up today and we look forward to seeing news and photos of your event that includes #OhioRiverBasinProud wherever possible and practical!
