Learn more: We're looking for volunteers to collect trash and record their findings - contributing to a long-term study on marine pollution. In past years, SNHU volunteers have picked up hundreds of pounds of trash! How much will we collect this year? Beach cleanups help wildlife and keep the beach safer for humans; the information recorded by Blue Ocean Society helps us learn about trends in marine pollution and in turn, identify solutions.
At the end of the cleanup, we’ll weigh the trash and discuss what was found. Please bring your own work gloves; plastic gloves are not recommended. Dress in layers and wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes for safety as the area is rocky. Note that temperatures can often be 10-15 degrees cooler at the beach than they are inland.
This project is family-friendly. Ample parking throughout the boardwalk area of the beach. Bathhouse facilities will be open and reusable bags will be provided for trash collected. Water will be available, though you're welcome to bring your own. Cleanup will be rescheduled to a different Friday if weather requires cancelation.
