The funds we raise will support free youth and beach programs from Nahant to Nantasket. You can find out more about the contest and buy your marble today at www.blog.savetheharbor.org.

The “Simply-Marble-ous” Treasure Hunt began in 2012 at a beach cleanup led by JetBlue crewmembers and Save the Harbor/Save the Bay. The more than 100 participants spent the day doing 5 weeks worth of maintenance to DCR’s Carson Beach Reservation in South Boston. When they were finished, they released marbles into the water for Boston beach-goers to find – starting a tradition that continues to this day.
