International Coastal Cleanup: A Community Project
Tuesday, October 6th at 9:00 am.
In past years, Walton County residents and visitors have turned out in large numbers to support the cleaning of our beaches and subsequently the Gulf during the International Coastal Cleanup. Each piece of debris collected is one more piece of trash saved from our ocean systems. We think this year can be equally effective with your help and presence in this community cleanup. Join the Coastal Seniors of South Walton (CSSW) at the Dune Allen Regional Access, 5999 W. Co. Hwy 30A, Dune Allen. Laurie Reichenbach, local Volunteer Beach Ambassador Team leader, will lead a discussion about microplastics and its effect on our beach environment and marine/shore life.
Trash bags and gloves will be available. Clean up will start by walking toward Ft Panic, which is about 1/4 mile to the east. Everyone should bring their water bottles, sunglasses, hats, and sunscreen. We will add these hours to the community total for the International Coastal Cleanup.
Please let the CSSW know if you will participate and if you have any questions by contacting Nancy at coastalseniorsofsouthwalton@gmail.com or by phone at 850-280-5342.
