Hundreds tour one of the country's largest treatment plants
Guests of all ages will tour a working wastewater treatment plant, one of the largest of the kind in the country, our Southerly Wastewater Treatment Center. Nearly 300 acres of working equipment gives visitors a real-world experience of the innovation needed to protect clean water and public health. Our award-winning and state-certified laboratory is also a tour highlight and we have the photos to prove it.
Water cycling: Bike tours traverse park trails, treatment plant
More than 40 riders will weave their way through a 5-mile bicycle course inside our Southerly treatment center and the connected trails through the Cleveland Metroparks, highlighting our seen and unseen infrastructure along the way.
Games, prizes, and winners giveaways for all
Hundreds of guests play games, earn prizes, and walk away winners with newfound knowledge of the work it takes to protect our environment. If you would like to host an exhibit space at our 2023 Clean Water Fest, reach out.
