Show our shoreline some love! Join your neighbors to clean up litter along the Berkeley Marina, 9AM-noon.

Coastal Cleanup Day in Berkeley on Sat, Sep 20

Meet at the Berkeley staging area located behind the Seabreeze Market at the corner of University and Frontage Rd. Here, everyone needs to sign waivers, receive safety information, and get directions to the various clean-up locations. We are asking everyone to bring their own reusable gloves and buckets. We do not want to generate more trash doing the clean-up than we actually pick up! But if you forget, that’s okay-- we will give you trash/recycle bags, pencils, tally cards and a map of the areas we need to clean.
Cleanup Ends at noon. At this point, turn in your tally cards at the main staging area and show us your most unusual items for judging. Each person who turns in the completed data card will get a coupon for a free meal at Rubio’s and a ticket to be part of our raffle, which starts by 12:15. Great Items are donated by local merchants.
