August 11th -- 9:30am, South Beach State Park @ South Jetty
Join Clean Oceans International and Rising Appalachia for a first time, free Coastal Cleanup!
We're fired up to bring together a day of action, in collaboration with the Beloved festival (belovedfestival.com), to reduce the amount of debris (plastic and otherwise) from a piece of the Oregon Coastline. Rising Appalachia and Clean Oceans International have teamed up with the Oregon State Parks System to provide a volunteer opportunity to monitor and remove trash as well as study micro-debris accumulation!
