Save Our Beach conducts a monthly beach cleanup in Seal Beach.
We have our "Monthly Beach Cleanup" every month from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the 1st Street Beach Lot (corner of Ocean & 1st in the Rivers End restaurant parking lot) in Seal Beach.
30 Minutes is not a huge commitment, but a lot of people, focused on a single worthwhile project for a mere 1/2 hour can produce some startling results, and thanks to you, we can see the difference we're making!
**MONTHLY BEACH CLEANUPS**
SEAL BEACH: On 1 Saturday per month (scroll down to see 2008 schedule) from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. meet at the 1st Street Beach Parking Lot (where Rivers End restaurant is), corner of 1st Street and Ocean Avenue in Seal Beach and help us keep trash off of our beach and out of our ocean. Kids of all ages are welcome! As always, we provide parking passes, garbage bags, protective gloves (AND certificates if you need one for school credit or community service).
All you need to bring is closed toe shoes and sunscreen! We're there rain or shine. See you in the sand! More questions? Please email kim@saveourbeach.org or call (562) 884-6764.
