Beach Cleanup - April 26, 2014 9:00 - 12:30

[magic]

It's that time again. Time to pay it forward by participating in our annual Spring Beach Cleanup April 26, 2014 9:30 - 12:00. The cleanup will happen at our adopted Beach at Gateway National Park (Sandy Hook). It's a great excuse to get out in the fresh air and give back at the same time. Please respond to this thread so I can complete the cleanup registration. This is being organized by Clean Ocean Action

Thanks

Cleanup update.

We will be meeting at Lot D in Gateway National Park (Sandy Hook) at 9:00 - 12:30. Please dress warm as it's been a little chilly in the past. I will be supplying gloves and bags. I hope to see a great turnout to represent the club. This is a national event sponsored by Clean Ocean Action.

There still time to signup for the beach cleanup. Sat. weather at Sandy Hook is going to be partly cloudy with a high of 63. It will be cool in the morning so I recommend you bring a sweatshirt and a hat. If you haven't signed up and your Sat. plans go south you'll be welcomed with open arms! Looking forward to seeing everyone there.
