SITE LOCATION / REGISTRATION
Cleanups will be held at the Antioch Marina overflow parking lot and Fulton Shipyard Road (by the Red Caboose Restaurant).

Click for Volunteer Release / Waiver formCheck-in begins at 8:30 AM. Please bring your completed waiver. Everyone must complete a Release / Waiver form to participate.

CHECK-IN / DAY OF EVENT

Wear sunscreen, shoes, and hat. When you check in at the cleanup location, you will be given trash bags, pencils, and a special data card to tally the items you collect. If at all possible, bring your own container for collecting trash, such as a reusable bucket, a milk jug with the top cut off, or a reused shopping bag. You can also bring your own work gloves. With a little effort, you can help move us closer to being a zero waste event by reducing the amount of disposable trash bags and gloves discarded on Coastal Cleanup Day.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR ALL VOLUNTEERS

  • SAFETY IS PARAMOUNT
    Please be careful crossing streets and keep track of all the children on your team. Team members should wear plastic gloves and use pick-up tools to protect themselves from harm and disease.  There should be "extra" gloves in your team kit, if needed.
     
  • PUBLIC vs. PRIVATE PROPERTY
    Please pick up litter  and debris on public property only, i.e., sidewalks, streets, parks, etc.  DO NOT pick up litter on private property.  This includes home driveways, front yards, and private parking lots.  You don't want to be charged with "trespassing". 
     
  • ALL VOLUNTEERS
    Please return any equipment, i.e.: pick-up tools, extra empty trash bags, extra gloves, etc. to the Check-in site.

     
  • VALUABLES
    Any valuables found during the Coastal Clean-Up should be referred to the Site Coordinators who will attempt to locate the owner of the article. 
     
  • SAVE YOUR WRISTBANDS!
    They are your "TICKET" for entry for your free lunch. Lunch will be served right after the clean-up on 1st Street (by the AMTRAK Station).
