Alabama Coastal Cleanup


This Saturday, Sept.16th is the 19th Annual Alabama Coastal Cleanup. The Coastal Cleanup is a project where the local citizens and visitor volunteers band together to clean trash and debris from the local waterways and beaches. Over the past 18 years the Alabama Coastal Cleanup has had 46,294 volunteers remove 843,710 pounds of marine debris from a total of 2,573 miles of coastline! It has grown from a few hundred volunteers to almost 4,000!! The Cleanup is more than a fun day in the sun. It is a time to keep "Alabama the Beautiful" by getting the Trash out of the Splash!
Come join the effort to keep the Alabama Coast beautiful and debris free. For information go to the Alabama Coastal Cleanup web site.
