There are many benefits to participating in Rain Check. Here are a few:

• Rain barrels are free, and sharing the cost of other landscaping projects offered by Rain Check saves you money.
• The stormwater tools on your property will filter pollution and manage stormwater runoff that would otherwise end up polluting our creeks and rivers.
• Simple changes in landscapes can inspire others to also contribute to the solution and motivate neighbors to also install green stormwater management tools.
• The selected Rain Check plants are low-maintenance landscape options that may also raise property values.
• Less pavement in our neighborhoods means lower temperatures and more green means more shade. Your participation in Rain Check will positively impact the entire City.
