Coastal Cleanup Day: Life’s a beach – let’s keep ours clean
My boys and I usually join regular Save Our Beach cleanups, the most recent one was in Seal Beach. Of course, on our very own “home” beach, we just pick up trash whenever we’re there. But this Saturday is the Big Coastal Cleanup Day! And it’s your chance to be a part of an organized effort to pitch in and pick up trash. It’s time to make a difference! We are so lucky to live where we live – let’s take care of our beaches.
