We'll actually be cleaning the beach at Florence that day and we'll stage at Goosepasture. Would love to get a HUGE GROUP Pic of everyone cleaning!

Safety is All-Important
In the 20 years that the Oregon Parks & Recreation Department has worked with SOLV on the Beach Cleanup, there have been no serious injuries. We would like that trend to continue. Please keep these safety rules in mind.
Watch for sneaker waves and use caution near rocks and cliffs.
Stay clear of logs in the surf and keep children near.
Bring hand protection and dress for the weather. It may be cold and rainy.
Don't touch medical waste (needles, bandages, etc.) Mark the location and report it to the Beach Captain when you return.
History
The first Beach Cleanup in the nation was held here in Oregon in 1984. Since then, annual beach cleanups have spread to every state in the Union, all US territories and more than 100 countries around the world. In 2003, 450,000 volunteers picked up over 7.6 million pounds of trash from 16,250 miles of coastline nationwide.
