Protecting Billy's Creek through education and promotion of its responsible use.

Billy's Creek

Billy's Creek:

Billy's Creek is a beautiful stream that flows through Fort Myers, Florida. It is perfect for kayaking, picnics, fishing, and small boats, but it needs to be properly maintained in order to be enjoyed. Friends of Billy's Creek is an all-volunteer organization of dedicated stakeholders who recognize the Creek as a precious and unique waterway. We regularly clean debris, discarded monofilament and dead vegetation from the waterway. We also hold community events, ecological tours, watercraft demonstrations and special water outings to promote responsible use of Billy's Creek. Friends of Billy's Creek has influenced the state of Florida to appropriate $500,000 for continued dredging and repair of Billy's Creek.
