PlayCleanGo is Making a Positive Impact

PlayCleanGo is a campaign to prevent invasive species from entering recreational or other pathways in nature: hiking, boating, hunting, fishing, biking, and worker pathways such as timber management, road maintenance and more.

The campaign’s goal is to protect valuable natural resources by instilling an ethic of stewardship in recreationists as they enjoy the places they love in the great outdoors. Key messaging is to:

  • Play in the outdoors
  • Clean your gear before you leave
  • Go to your next adventure


Our objective is to slow—and where possible to stop—the spread of invasive species by changing public and worker behaviors at risk of spreading harmful pests living on land or in water.

This campaign promotes awareness, understanding, and cooperation by providing a clear call to action to be informed, attentive and accountable for stopping the spread of all invasive species.
