Clark's Run Environmental Education Corporation
Local, Efficient, Effective
Clark's Run Environmental Education Corporation (CREEC) is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization dedicated to protecting and enhancing Clark's Run as a community resource for Boyle County. CREEC is an all-volunteer organization that formed in 2005 to improve the Clark's Run watershed by enhancing water quality and educating the public.
CREEC has been recognized numerous times by the Kentucky Environment Quality Commission for our efforts to improve water quality in Clark's Run including receiving the Earth Day Award in 2006 and 1996. We were also awarded the Bluegrass PRIDE Award and grant in 2004 for our Reforestation project along Clark's Run, and we were given a Promise Environmental Award by Anheuser Busch in 1997.
