Volunteers Needed for Coastal Cleanup Day Sept 15

September 15, 2018 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

The City of Carlsbad is seeking volunteers for the 34th annual California Coastal Cleanup Day, Saturday, Sept. 15, from 9 a.m. to noon at Buena Vista Creek. Reduce waste at this year’s cleanup by bringing along your own bucket, work gloves and reusable water bottle.

Cleanup volunteers not only pick up trash, they also collect data on types of trash and debris found. This data is used to educate the public, businesses, industries and government on pollution prevention.

Volunteers are encouraged to sign up at http://cleanupday.org. Click on the map to select the city-sponsored inland site at Buena Vista Creek, or any of the other registered sites. A volunteer waiver form is available on the website or at the event. All volunteers are required to sign the waiver, and participants under 18 must have a waiver signed by a parent or guardian.

Sponsored by I Love A Clean San Diego and part of the larger International Coastal Cleanup Day, the California Coastal Cleanup Day includes events at more than 100 locations throughout San Diego County, including several sites in Carlsbad.

Last year, 6,686 volunteers at 105 coastal and inland cleanup sites successfully removed 128,168 pounds of litter from San Diego County.

Join us in cleaning up our creeks, lagoons, and ocean!
