Beach Cleanup May 15th Poll
- Thread starter magic
- Start date
My wife and I were just there on Sunday and we were shocked at the amount of plastic debris on both the ocean and bay side.
I think it's a great idea from the Conservation Comittee with direct impact in our own backyard! Now all we need is member support!
I am there!

Sounds like a good thing. I know my kids would get into this. Would I be able to bring them? They are so funny. They are constantly picking things up and show/tell me "look Daddy I'm saving the earth" the funny thing is that sometimes it may be a fallen leaf or an off color rock! LOL But it really was incredible how much they remembered Earth day from last year.
Bob, what time, where and what do you want us to bring? We are talking Monday, the 15th, and I'm good unless my accountant calls a last-minute meeting, which she does too often.
Thanks for pulling this together.

Hey, I can’t help it if I can’t multitask. I’m a man! I either look at the month, or look at the date. I saw 15 and thought it was this month. Now that I see it is some date in May, I’m not sure if I can make it. Weekends that time of year are bad for me.
That's part of the reason I moved out of my old neighborhood and came to the pine barrons! I wanted my kids to know about nature, not busy streets and sidewalks. And they have learned many things and seen some great wildlife in the almost 2 years we've been here.magic said:

Same questions here. I'd be willing to chip in to have a picnic type lunch whether we buy or bring a dish like the meetings.
I'm really glad to see the response so far. I don't have much info at this point. An application with the total number of volunteers needs to be submitted, everyone that participates will get a certificate from the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection. I'll check on the T-shirts and I'm sure we can pull together something for lunch (chip in). Taz, great role model!

Should probably create an RSVP because while people can only vote once (like us) there would be 4 of us attending at this point. Then we could keep a rolling number (as people are added on and drop off) of how many will be able to attend. Maybe even a good thing for the save the date spot for now!

Great initiative all! I have it marked down to join, along with my cleanup crew. (two children) They will scan the beach like narsarius snails!
Everyone! Please make sure that you register for the cleanup. This is a great way to show your kids that you care about the environment and start them on their way to a more environmentally responsible future!

I would love to help in this event specially outdoor event. only thing that draw me back is my 2 years old son. he might be a trouble maker more than a helper. I might have to convince my wife to come along in order to keep the terrible 2 inline. I will sign up when we get close to May 15.
