If you’re going to be on Sanibel mid-September, consider joining island friends and neighbors as they participate in this year’s International Coastal Cleanup. This year’s event is scheduled for September 17 from 8:00 – 11:00 a.m. at various locations.
The International Coastal Cleanup remains the largest, global volunteer effort to remove trash from local shorelines. Since its beginning, more than 17 million volunteers around the world have collected over 348 million pounds of trash.
Registration is now open through Keep Lee County Beautiful. KLCB is the local organizer of the Ocean Conservancy’s ICC in Southwest Florida.
“International Coastal Cleanup is a leading and inspiring action in support of protecting our waterways,” Executive Director Trish Fancher said. “KLCB is committed to fight ocean trash and couldn’t do it without our amazing volunteers.”
Advance registration is required. For more information or to register, visit https://www.klcb.org/events/coastal-cleanup/.
