Beach Cleanup
September 8, 2021 / 2:30 PM–4:30 PM
Be a part of the solution to marine pollution!
Get sandy and sun-kissed while you participate in a noble cause - collecting and categorizing marine debris! East Beach surely thanks you for your support. Bring reusable cleanup supplies, if you can, and join us for a rewarding afternoon on the beach.
