Whether you’re a seasoned runner or just out for a stroll, everyone is welcome.• Meet us on the beach at 1pm by the flags where we will meet to sign waivers and hand out compostable bags and gloves.
• Clean the beach
• Meet back at the flags at 2pm for a team photo and our monthly giveaway. All attendees are entered for a chance to win. Exclusively rewards are distributed to all for doing good deeds.
Drop ins are welcomed but RSVPs are encouraged in case of any last minute changes due to weather, beach closures, etc.
